Bradford-Union Counties:

Welcome to the 2019 Bradford County Fair! This year’s theme is “Hometown Heroes...your hero is our hero! “.

We want everyone to enjoy themselves at our hometown fair featuring the patriotic folks of Bradford and Union counties. We are continually working to improve our fair and this year is no exception with an exciting midway and awesome exhibits.

On behalf of the Bradford County Fair Association, I would like to take this opportunity to thank the many dedi-cated individuals who have worked very hard to make this event a success. The help and support of each and every person in the community who is involved is greatly appreci-ated.

There are many local businesses and industries that pro-vide employment opportunities for our community. The Bradford County Fair provides an informative environ-ment which supports and promotes those businesses and industries. It is our mission to make the Bradford County Fair a safe and fun fair for the whole family. Thank you and remember “your hero is our hero! “.

Nicole “Nikki” Fried Commissioner Of Agriculture

Welcome to the Bradford County Fair! Each year, approximately 5 million people attend one of the numerous fairs around our state. As Florida’s Commissioner of Agriculture, I am enthusiastic about the positive impact fairs and livestock shows have on the agricultural industry. Events like the Bradford County Fair are an excellent platform for showcasing the finest “Fresh from Florida” products as well as the industry’s latest techno-logical advancements and innovations. The Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services created and maintains the “Fresh from Florida” program, which assists small and large producers alike by promoting the wide variety of high quality products that are grown and harvested in Florida. I hope we can also count on your support of this program - just look for items with the “Fresh from Florida” label. To-gether, we can help our state’s agricultural industry thrive.

While you are visiting the Bradford County Fair today, I hope you will take the opportunity to enjoy the outstanding food, entertainment, contests and youth exhibits. Most importantly, I hope your day at the fair will allow you to experience Florida’s agricultural roots and its impact on our great state. En-joy!

Sincerely,

COMMISSIONER NICOLE “NIKKI” FRIED
