About Scott County Fair

The Scott County Fair in Forest is an August fair in the Piney Woods of central Mississippi, celebrating the cattle, poultry, and timber heritage of a county in the headwaters of the Strong River where the red clay uplands and sandy Piney Woods soils produce a mixed farming and forest economy.

What to Expect

Expect livestock shows, FFA and 4-H competitions, local food vendors, and a community fair in the rolling Piney Woods timber and poultry country of Scott County.

Visitor Tips

Forest is the Scott County seat — the Scott County area is one of Mississippi's most active poultry-producing regions, and the surrounding Piney Woods timber country and the Lake Forest Point area of the Ross Barnett Reservoir nearby offer outdoor recreation in this central Mississippi community.
