Get your pies and pickles ready, it’s Albemarle County Fair time. Fairgoers are treated to a food truck lineup and live music from Baby Jo’s, Dark Hollow, Virginia Rain, and Charles Frazier & The Virginia Ramblers, as well as demonstrations, craft exhibits, and a livestock showcase that flaunts well-raised cows, bunnies, goats, and more. Makers compete in agricultural categories that include hops and homebrews, handcrafts, and veggies in art—best Mr. & Mrs. Potato Head!
