Rock Hall Country Fair
Travel back to revolutionary days and enjoy some old-fashioned family fun at the Town of Hempstead’s annual Country Fair, as the sights and sounds of a colonial era working farm are re-enacted on the grounds of historic Rock Hall. As always, there are many activities to take part in, including a harvest market, scarecrow making, farm animals to see, pony rides, children’s craft area, and pumpkin patch. Also, see an authentic encampment with the 30th Virginia Infantry Company B.
