About Norfolk County Fair
Every year, Dedham hosts the Norfolk County Fair, which celebrates the suburban Boston county that includes Quincy (birthplace of two presidents — John Adams and John Quincy Adams), Brookline (birthplace of JFK), and the South Shore communities, where the county's agricultural heritage in the Charles River valley and the Blue Hills is honored alongside its dense suburban character.
Visitor Tips
Quincy's Adams National Historical Park preserves the birthplaces and home of the Adams presidential family. Dedham's historic courthouse (site of the Sacco-Vanzetti trial) and the Blue Hills Reservation's Great Blue Hill — with its weather observatory — are county landmarks.
