Fair time
The Santa Cruz County Fair officially begins todayand runs through next Sunday. My spouse and I have been recruited to assist in the Harvest Building, though we aren't yet certain exactly when that will be. Volunteers have been hard at work for weeks with cleaning, painting, sorting, decorating and taking in entries. If you're going to be in the area you'll have a great time at the fair. If you can't be here, make a note of the whole thing anyway, because if you ever get to the Watsonville area you really must see the Ag History Project exhibits at the fairgrounds. Gas engines, farm implements, classic motor cars and even vintage, farmhouse kitchen items are on display, along with historical exhibits that are specific to the Central Coast area. During the fair they'll be running some of the old engines and demonstrating a lot of the tools and techniques farmers have used in the past.
