Something to Crow about!
September 11th and 12th 10-4 both Days!
Plans are underway for the 2nd Annual Country Fair sponsored by the Hermann Farm & Museum. A visit by the Montgomery County Old Thresher's Association along with Percheron draft horses, Clydesdales hitched for carriage rides, a variety of vendors offering everything from jams and jellies to locally produced honey products and apple butter simmering over an open fire creates a family atmosphere that's hard to beat. Foods, music, literature, arts, folk crafts and farm land critters all help celebrate our rural heritage. Fun for all ages.
