Wednesday of last week was a great day for the Vineyard.
The preparations are almost done and the crowds ready to be welcomed to the 157th Agricultural Fair and Livestock Show.
Illumination, the Agricultural Fair, the Oak Bluffs Fireworks, it’s all happening this coming week, the end of summer bonanza that keeps on giving.
Barbara Ronchetti, owner of Island Alpaca, created this year's winning poster for the 157th annual Agricultural Fair. The fair takes place August 16 to 19.
Eleanor Neubert and Kathy Lobb, longtime managers of the Ag Fair, were honored at a weekend ceremony.
The 156th Martha’s Vineyard Agricultural Fair put West Tisbury at center stage. Neither pounding rain nor blistering sun could keep crowds away.
Friday’s deluge of rain turned the grassy parking lots around the fair into mud pits. But on Saturday the sun and heat returned along with lots of happy fairgoers.
