Jackson County 90th Fall Agricultural Fair

Welcome to Jackson County Veterans Fairgrounds

220 Cecil Street                  Scottsboro, AL  35768

The Jackson County Fair Association (JCFA) was incorporated in 1949 to sponsor and host a Spring Carnival and Fall Agricultural Fair each year.  JCFA consists entirely of members of local American Legion Post 30 and Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) Post 6073 and their respective Auxiliaries.  All work is volunteer.  The net-proceeds of the two events provide funding to American Legion Post 30, VFW Post 6073 and their respective Auxiliaries to support community programs and education for our children such as agricultural contest awards, farm animal contest awards, exhibit payouts, Veterans Helping Veterans (VHV) wheelchair ramps for Veterans in need, short-term assistance to homeless Veterans and Veterans in need, providing transportation to Veterans for VA appointments and scholarships to city and county high school students.  Net-proceeds also fund facilities operations.
