It started this weekend, and it’s a favorite attraction each year in September…It’s the NC Mountain State Fair. Have you ever been to a fair? What do you remember best about it? The rides? The cotton candy? The prizes for sheep and pigs, for goats and cattle?  The prize-winning fruits and vegetables? Home-baked pies? Well, over at the WNC Ag Center, about fifteen minutes from our Asheville bed and breakfast, the Mountain State Fair has all that and more!

This is an old-fashioned fair plus great local music acts, acrobats and a circus complete with clowns, jugglers and a trapeze act! So a visit to the Fair, just like a visit to Asheville, offers great variety…and who could forget the food!  The fun things you remember from when you were a kid!

The weather forecast is great this week, so plan on stopping by… the Fair opens at 3pm and is open ’til 11pm through Wednesday and open ’til midnight Wednesday through Saturday. Hope to see you there!
