Fairing
The Martin County Fair brought neighbors together each year to celebrate local agriculture, craftsmanship, and community pride, and these name badges worn by Ed Higbee offer a glimpse into the volunteer spirit that kept the fair running.
From the early days when Martin County's economy depended on crops and livestock, the fair served as a showcase for farmers' best work and a gathering place for families across the Treasure Coast. The typed history of the fair preserved here tells the story of how a small county fair grew into an important tradition that connected Stuart's agricultural heritage to its growing community.
On display, main floor, Dyer section.
