Good to Know
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.
Scott County Fair Overview
Every year, Forest hosts the Scott County Fair, which 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.
Highlights
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.
