2015 Dixon May Fair Will Be 'Nuttin' But Fun!'

News from Dixon May Fair:

With walnuts and almonds as two of the top ten commodities grown in Solano County, the Dixon May Fair says that is “Nuttin’ but Fun!”. The Fair announced their 2015 Fair theme this week with the unveiling of the new artwork by Steve Dana depicting a cast of farm animal characters that have become familiar to Fair visitors as they harvest nuts and fair favorites.

“As an agriculture-based Fair in Solano County we saw the opportunity to promote a local commodity and educate the public about our walnut and almond crops while having some fun at the same time,” said Patricia Conklin, CEO of the Dixon May Fair. The Dixon May Fair has been supporting agriculture in Solano County for 140 years.

The most recent crop report shows walnuts as the top crop with sales of $55,435,000 and almonds ranked seventh with sales of $17,113,000.

Fair goers can expect educational displays and themed exhibits touting “Nuttin’ But Fun!”, as well as themed categories in the Fair’s competitive exhibit program. Suggestions may be sent to exhibits representative Sandy Bonesteel at sbonesteel@dixonmayfair.com.

The 2015 Dixon May Fair will be held May 7-10. For information visit DixonMayFair.com or follow Dixon May Fair on Facebook.
