I just have to share this with all of you who have not had the pleasure of visiting New England in Autumn. The flavor of New England in the Autumn is never more boastful as evidenced at the Topsfield Fair. This annual county fair is held at the Topsfield Fair Grounds in Topsfield, Massachusetts every October. Famed as "America's Oldest" county agricultural fair founded in 1818, this event promotes and supports the efforts of the Essex County agricultural community. But it's much, much more than just agricultural.
The Topsfield fair has something for everyone. Sand Sculptures, milking demonstrations, Giant Pumpkin contest, games and rides, agriculture exhibits and demonstrations, cattle barn, flower barn, fruits and vegetable barn, art demonstrations and competitions, and one of the best things of all.....great food! My personal favorite is the fried dough loaded with melted butter, cinnamon sugar, and powdered sugar. MMMMMMM good! Well, once a year is okay, right?
Essex County of Massachusetts encompasses 829 square miles of land in the Northeastern section of Massachusetts. It's cities include 39 cities, towns, and villages. A fair number of these are rural in nature, and enjoy beautifully scenic landscapes with wooded, rolling hills bathed in reds and golds in the Autumn. Some of these rural communities include Topsfield, Essex, Groveland, Hamilton, Wenham, Georgetown, Middleton, and Rowley. View homes for sale in these Essex County communities.
