About Toombs County Fair
Toombs County is home to the famous Vidalia onion — the world-renowned sweet onion grown in the distinctive sandy soils of the Vidalia area, where the unique combination of low-sulfur soil and climate produces onions so mild they can be eaten like apples, protected by a federal marketing order since 1986.
What to Expect
Livestock and agricultural competitions, 4-H and FFA exhibits, carnival rides, fair food featuring local sweet onions, and community entertainment celebrating Toombs County's Vidalia onion heritage and southeast Georgia farming character.
Visitor Tips
Lyons is the Toombs County seat, with Vidalia just south — the Vidalia Onion Museum celebrates the agricultural heritage that made this region internationally famous. Visit the onion fields and the museum alongside the county fair.
