The Brooklyn Fair is an annual agricultural fair held in Brooklyn, Connecticut,[1] for the first time in 1809.[2] It is considered the oldest agricultural fair in the United States.[2][3][4]
The fair is organized by the Windham County Agricultural Society[5]
History
- In 1809, the first year of the fair, it was held on the site of what is currently known as the Vanilla Bean Cafe [6]
- In the following years, the event was hosted in rotation in Woodstock, Brooklyn, and Pomfret, Connecticut
- About 10 years after the first fair, in 1820, the ~100 founders incorporated in the Windham County Agricultural Society.
- In the year 2000 the Society was recognized for its efforts by the Library of Congress in its "Bicentennial Local Legacies Project" as part of its 200th Anniversary celebration.[3]
- No fair was held in 1917–18 because of World War I, 1942–45 because of World War II, or 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
