In the 1990s, township volunteers began building an annual event that would remind citizens of Branchburg's rural heritage and serve as a s social centerpiece for the community. Today, the Branchburg Country Fair is becoming a cherished tradition. Held in mid-September in sprawling White Oak Park, the Branchburg Country Fair has something for everyone. Community groups show off their members and achievements. Hobbyist and craftspeople offer their wares.
Small businesses connect with prospective customers.
Large corporations build public awareness and goodwill. All the while, the kids play beanbag games, ride ponies, and eat cotton candy floss. Area restaurants serve their specialties. Local musicians, dancers and other entertainers strut their stuff. And after dark, the skies over Branchburg light up with one of Somerset County's largest fireworks.
