5 The Honorable Jai Templeton, TN Commissioner Putnam County is growing and expanding every day. Take a drive and you ll see new roads, new homes, new restaurants and new retail spaces. It s easy to feel like the traditions of the past are fading away, but they aren t. Traditions are alive and well at the Putnam County Agricultural and Industrial Fair. Our county fairs keep us together. Once a year, every year, we reconnect with our neighbors and friends. On the midway, it won t be long before you see two friends bump into each other and strike up a conversation. In the livestock barns, neighbors who are often busy with everyday life will pause to visit, reminisce, and share stories of showing livestock when they were young. From the poultry shed to the mule pull, and from the baby pageants to the creative arts exhibit, there s something fun for every member of the family. County fairs give everyone the opportunity to share their talents and define their communities. That s the kind of spirit that makes Tennessee s fairs so special. Our traditions aren t lost on our children. I ve had the opportunity to meet the young men and women who make up the Putnam County Junior Fair Board. They are shining examples of the benefits that agriculture, education, and community involvement bring to our state. They are becoming leaders by watching your leadership and preparing themselves for a future that continues to honor our agricultural traditions. Congratulations to all of the Putnam County Fair Board Team who continue to make this event a success and thank you to everyone in the community who offers support. From the funds appropriated by the General Assembly of the State of Tennessee for the purpose of aiding agricultural fairs and livestock shows in the payment of agricultural premiums, the Putnam County Agricultural & Industrial Fair has been allotted its proportionate share by the Tennessee Department of Agriculture. Jai Templeton, Commissioner of Agriculture. Tennessee Association of Fairs Agricultural fairs are a tradition in our beautiful state. When you travel Tennessee roads the beauty that lines the country roads include some of the most impressive of agricultural scenes, from rolling pastures covered in a variety of livestock, & field crops to beautiful country homes with garden areas, chicken pens and generations of farmers. The education, taught generation to generation, is thankfully what continues to feed America. Where families come together to celebrate life, you can join your neighbors for a variety of entertainment, show your community pride and learn from the endless education of your county fair. Plan now to support your local county fair it s an American and Tennessee tradition. The Tennessee Association of Fairs fosters the improvement and continuing legacy of county fairs in Tennessee. Officers of the TAF include: Lisa Robinson, President, Phil Booher, 1st Vice President; Will Lowery, 2nd Vice President; Scott Jones, 3rd Vice President; Emily Pitcock, Executive Secretary; Julie Thompson, Executive Assistant., Lynne Williams, Fair Administrator, TN Dept. of Agriculture; Middle TN District Directors: Mike Pelham, Heath Hill, and Jeff Hughes. c

6 Putnam County Master Gardeners Evelyn Breyer, President; Vicky Draper, V. President; Jan Tollett, Secretary; Vickie Muse, Treasurer. along with 60 Master Gardeners who create our wonderful exhibit year after year! They envision it, create it, and manage it for the 10 days it s an incredible gift to Putnam County and the Fair! Celebrating Gardening The Putnam County Master Gardeners (PCMG) have been participating in the Fair for approximately a dozen years. We originally did an exhibit under the Grandstands until the Fair Board offered us a building (beef annex) that we could use for displays. The theme for this year s exhibits is Woodland Gardens which is perfect for the shade loving plants that will grow well indoors. It is difficult for us to grow plants requiring sun inside the building because there is not enough light. We usually have about six displays. We always have a children s potting shed where youngsters will pot up plants grown by Master Gardeners and then take them home. The procedure is supervised by a Master Gardener and intended to be a learning experience. Then we also have an exhibit for children s entertainment whether it be games, crafts, or a combination of both. Our building is to be one of the stops where there will be clues for a treasure hunt. We generally have ornamental & showy displays containing a number of plants as well as some that are educational and suited to do-it yourself projects. One of PCMG s priorities is to promote education of the public regarding good horticultural practices. The PCMG organization has about sixty members. They must have completed a training course supervised by a University of Tennessee extension agent. After training, a MG must annually complete volunteer service hours and continuing education hours (CEU). PCMG service hours reported to the state organization for 2017 were 4,732 and CEU hours were 615. Anyone interested in becoming a Master Gardener should contact Wayne Key at or jkey3@utk.edu. The course is generally taught once a year from about January to April on Monday nights. Everyone is welcome with no particular level of gardening expertise being required. Master Gardener Building is open weekdays 4-9p.m. Fridays 4 10p.m. & Saturdays 2 10p.m. & Sunday 2 9p.m. d

7 ADVENTURES IN AGRICULTURE Bringing Agriculture To The Community The 92nd Putnam County Agricultural & Industrial Fair will provide a wide variety of experiences for youth and adults as we showcase agriculture. Agriculture and industry were the foundation of the Putnam County Fair over 100 years ago and this year we are celebrating our agriculture heritage with a new initiative Bringing Agriculture to the Community. In some respects we are returning to our roots, and reaching back and remembering why our fair was created over 100 years ago. Traditions hold us together, and the traditions of our county fair should be shared with children and young people. From the chicken house, to the Big Barn, to the Fair Office, the Cultural Arts Building and all over the fairgrounds we will feature farm animals, gardening and field crops, and domestic arts to emphasize the importance of farm life in today s society. Our new Petting Zoo and enhanced Farmer for the Day are the starting place for children and adults to see farm animals up close. Then it s a short hop over to the Chicken House where renovations have taken place and new ideas are visible. Around the fair office we will feature a horse, cow, sheep, hog and goat so everyone can see all the different species that feed us, entertain us, and carry us along our way. Our Junior Fair Board is providing the leadership for much of this new initiative with support from our volunteers and the fair board. They have created games, a straw maze, displays for all the species, an aquaponics exhibit, and even a scavenger hunt focused on farm animals. A new farm equipment display will help us remember the tools and equipment used many years ago to grow our food and cultivate the land and some of the new equipment in use today. All this is complimented by the Woodland Gardens exhibit created by our Master Gardeners which reminds us of the beauty and importance of appreciating Nature s gift of the woodlands. Thanks to the Putnam County/UT Extension Service and 4-H and The College of Agriculture & Human Ecology at Tennessee Technological University who have partnered with us to make Bringing Agriculture to the Community possible. e

42 Tennessee Century Farms The Patio behind the South Grandstand is dedicated to this program & these outstanding Putnam County farms. The Tennessee Century Farms Programs documents and recognizes farms owned by the same family for at least 100 years. To date, nearly 1400 farms have been certified. The Center for Historic Preservation maintains the Century Farm database of information and photographs, most of which is based on applications supplied by the farm families. Tennessee Agriculture: A Century Farms Perspective was published by the Tennessee Department of Agriculture and the Center in The booklength study includes descriptions of each farm with both color and black & white photographs. The Century Farms Program established shared interests among the Center for Historic Preservation, local historical societies, county extension offices, city & county governments, and chambers of commerce. The bond was strengthened with the traveling exhibit, " Tennessee's Century Farms: Change and Continuity over 200 Years of Farming." Funded by the Center and the Tennessee Humanities Council, it toured the state in Taking rural preservation work in new directions, Center staff successfully nominated several historic family farms to the National Register of Historic Places. This work paved the way for the innovative Historic Family Farms of Middle Tennessee multiple property nomination. Considered a model for rural preservation, this was the first thematic nomination in the country to deal with historic farmsteads. The CHP, working with the Tennessee Department of Agriculture and the Tennessee Historical Commission, serves as a clearing house of information on the Tennessee Century Farms Program, National Register Documentation of farms, and as national leader in documentation and interpretation of historic family farms.

Special Comments: 1. It is expected that all exhibitors will bring only healthy animals to fairs and exhibitions. Although state and federal animal health officials will be performing some inspections, fair officials are responsible for ensuring that all animals entering fairs for exhibition are in overall good health and are accompanied by a Certificate of Veterinary Inspection. Animals showing clinical signs of contagious disease should be sent home immediately. Violations should be reported to the state veterinarian or his agent. 2. Certificate(s) of Veterinary Inspection are to accompany all animal(s) to the respective shows with the exception of in-state Tennessee equine and poultry. In-state Tennessee equine six (6) months of age and older must have a negative Equine Infectious Anemia test within the preceding twelve (12) months. Poultry assembled at shows or exhibitions should be accompanied by evidence of a negative test for Pullorum-Typhoid within 90 days, or be tested on-site prior to exhibition following strict biosecurity procedures, or originate directly from a flock which has been certified as Pullorum-Typhoid Clean under the Tennessee Poultry Improvement Plan. As part of increased awareness and surveillance for Avian Influenza and other poultry diseases, all bird s physical appearance should be assessed at the time testing is conducted. 3. Health certificates issued in satisfaction of these Tennessee Fair Regulations shall be good for 90 days for Tennessee livestock only. 4. Please note that exhibition requirements for out-of-state livestock are the same as regular import requirements. 5. Warts and ringworm are considered contagious and infectious diseases and are permissible exclusions only if considered inactive by the issuing veterinarian and noted as such on the Certificate of Veterinary Inspection. 6. Scabies, contagious ecthyma (soremouth), footrot, cutaneous fungal and bacterial infections (i.e. club lamb disease, caseous lymphadenitis) are considered contagious and infectious diseases, and are permissible exclusions only if considered inactive by the issuing veterinarian and noted as such on the Certificate of Veterinary Inspection. 7. Avian Influenza All out-of-state poultry must originate directly from a Pullorum-Typhoid Clean Flock and a H5/H7 Avian Influenza Clean Flock, or be accompanied by evidence of a negative Pullorum-Typhoid test within ninety (90) days and a negative official Avian Influenza test within twenty-one (21) days. Also, please note that if highly pathogenic Avian Influenza is detected in Tennessee or a neighboring state, the commingling of poultry at fairs and exhibitions may be suspended. Fair Biosecurity Below is a summary of recommendations for fair management by the National Assembly of State Animal Health Officials and the National Association of State Public Health Veterinarians to better protect fair attendees from disease: Provide easy access to hand washing stations. Post informational signage that includes the following messages: No eating or drinking in the animal areas. Wash hands frequently. No pacifiers, sipping cups or strollers in the animal exhibition areas. Discourage sleeping in the animal exhibition areas. If human or swine influenza-like-illness is associated with the exhibition, animal health and public health officials should be notified immediately. People who have influenza-like illness should leave the exhibition immediately and seek medical care. They should advise their health care provider about their fair attendance. People at high risk for developing severe complications from influenza should limit their exposure to swine. Also, be aware of the potential exposure of fair attendees to E. coli 0157 from animals exhibited on the fairgrounds. 39
