RHINEBECK, N.Y. — The Dutchess County Fair returns for its 177th year from Tuesday, Aug. 22, through Sunday, Aug. 27.
As in years past, the fair will feature a midway, a petting zoo and plenty of fair food favorites.
The fair will host livestock shows throughout the week, including animals that children, mostly 4H members, bring to compete for money and prizes.
Fair officials said they spend over $100,000 in premiums and prizes for the agricultural shows.
“We’re still one of the oldest and largest agricultural fairs in New York State,” Dutchess County Agricultural Society’s Chairman of the Board, Tim Coon said Tuesday. “It’s all about promoting and educating the fairgoer. Not as many kids are growing up on farms these days. he numbers are decreasing, but they’re still doing a tremendous job of it.”
