Planning Your Visit
Union's historic courthouse and the county's extraordinary collection of pre-Civil War farmhouses reflect one of West Virginia's most architecturally rich rural landscapes. Moncove Lake State Park and the Allegheny highlands provide recreation.
A Closer Look
Farmer's Day in Union celebrates Monroe County's agricultural heritage in the Allegheny highlands, where Salt Sulphur Springs and other mineral springs once drew 19th-century resort guests, and where the county's limestone farmland in the Sweet Springs valley produces cattle and timber. Run by the Union Area Chamber of Commerce, the event marks its 71st year in 2026 and draws 8,000-10,000 attendees.
Fair Highlights
Expect a parade, a horse show, local food vendors, and a celebration of Monroe County's farming and ranching community drawn from the Sweet Springs valley.
