There are at least 7 county fairs we&#8217;ve counted, though probably a whole lot more. They span the state, providing carnival thrills, live music shows, local talent contests, livestock, baby animals, petting zoos, produce, and new-fangled products that slice, dice and mesmerize audiences with their amazing innovations. Watch exotic birds, plants, wild cats, jumping dogs, moo-ing cows, baaaa-ing sheep, and oinking pigs. Enter a pig calling contest or watch a pig race. Who loves the fair? Babies, kids, teens, adults, seniors, singles, families, friends&#8230;who doesn&#8217;t love the fair?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Here you go!<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>COSTA MESA <\/strong>&#8211; Orange County Fair July 13-August 12, 2012, ocfair.com<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong><\/strong><strong>GRASS VALLEY<\/strong> &#8211; Nevada County Fair\u00a0 Aug 8 -12, 2012\u00a0\u00a0 nevadacountyfair.com<strong><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>NAPA<\/strong> &#8211; Napa Valley Expo August 8 &#8211; 12, 2012\u00a0 napavalleyexpo.com<strong><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>QUINCY<\/strong> &#8211;\u00a0 Plumas-Sierra County Fair Aug 8 &#8211; 12, 2012\u00a0\u00a0 plumas-sierracountyfair.net<\/li>\n<li><strong>SANTA ROSA<\/strong> &#8211; Sonoma County Fair July 25 &#8211; Aug 12, 2012 sonomacountyfair.com<strong><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong>VENTURA<\/strong> County Fair Aug 1 &#8211; 12, 2012\u00a0 venturacountyfair.org<strong><\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>\u00a0YREKA &#8211;\u00a0 <\/strong>Siskiyou Golden Fair\u00a0 Aug 8 &#8211; 12, 2012\u00a0\u00a0 sisqfair.com<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" title=\"imgs\" src=\"http:\/\/www.seecalifornia.com\/images\/fairly.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"326\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>California Fairs are stealing the show this weekend.
