It’s an exciting time to be engaged in the Hardin County Fair. In 2019, The Hardin County Ag Society engaged in a strategic planning process to ensure the Hardin County Fair remains the area’s premier event. This includes constructing a multi-purpose state-of-the-art structure. This structure is one that will serve as a livestock complex during the Hardin County Fair, but will also serve as a source of revenue for the society in the off-season. The structure will provide an opportunity for even venue rentals and winter storage.
In 2021, we announced this audacious goal to the community. After lots of thinking, feedback, and revision, we’ve developed a plan that will serve the needs of all exhibitors.
Ohio State Representative Jon Cross announced $500,000 in funding for the Hardin County Fair to jumpstart their livestock complex construction project. […]
Expand infrastructure work beyond the Northwest corner to encompass new building locations.
Starting summer of 2025, we will construct building one to include a new small animal show arena and housing facility.
Starting summer of 2026, construct buildings two and three, and relocate vendor camping spots, food vendors, and kids’ entertainment on the east end of the fairgrounds.
In the summer of 2027, construct building four and demolish the existing hog, sheep/goat, rabbit, and small animal show arena.
Around 2028, construct a new horse complex (both barn and show arena) and demolish the remaining barns.
Around 2029, the existing show arena will be repurposed into a venue.
