Our Ohio - Great Darke County Fair

The Darke County Fair in Greenville has a reputation as being one of the finest county fairs in America. We visit the fair on its 150th anniversary to see what makes it such a special experience.

Darke County is Ohio's largest agricultural producing county, according to 2002 statistics from the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Darke County farmers produced $304.2 million in agricultural goods. Darke County is the No. 1 producer of corn and soybeans in the state and ranks second in hog production. Our Ohio is ThinkTV's weekly series showcasing the lifestyles, heritage and culture of the Buckeye state.
