About Vernon County Fair

The Vernon County Fair in Viroqua closes out Wisconsin's fair season in mid-September in the heart of the driftless area. Vernon County has one of the highest concentrations of organic farms in the United States, driven by a strong Amish community and back-to-land movement that settled here in the 1970s.

What to Expect

Livestock shows, 4-H competitions, carnival rides, fair food, and community entertainment serve this remarkably diverse agricultural county that blends conventional and organic farming traditions.

Visitor Tips

Viroqua has become a destination for farm-to-table food and organic agriculture tourism — the area's Amish communities and organic farms make for fascinating exploration alongside the fair.
