If indeed a painting can evince soul, it is because Gary deftly manages to creatively capture it, surround it, paint it and elevate it for public display. Not many people can traffic between the worldly and transcendent, Gary manages to do so effortlessly. He is grounded, rooted and nurtured in the land and the New England life style he paints. His brush strokes and color choices give voice to each rock, bolder, blade of grass, leaf and tree until you find yourself in a surround sound of nature's symphony. If you wonder what Robert Frost would have been like as a painter rather than a poet, search no further Gary Shepard is the embodiment of that self same spirit.

We visited in September 2024 and I thought I had posted a review, but sometimes when I'm writing…read morereviews in the car while in-transit, they get lost in the either, so here I am again! We didn't get an early start and by the time we arrived there were lines miles away from the entrances. Police were directing traffic down different streets toward different parking areas. So plan to arrive early. Parking is in grassy fields surrounding the fairgrounds and there is a *lot of it so plan to walk quite a way to and from your vehicle and to drive 'off road' for a bit. Definitely do not bring your sports car if you can help it because those fields have ruts. The road way we walked in on was dirt and they did have a tractor pulling a cart if you wanted a ride that went by occasionally. Strollers and/or wagons for the smaller ones if an absolute must. There are a few entrances into the fairgrounds so make note of which entrance you are parked near. There are maps of the fairgrounds available inside (we were not offered one upon entry) at an information kiosk we stumbled upon. They also have designated 'meet up' spots in case you get separated from members of your group so maybe find those and let the kids know where to meet up if they get lost. And we *did come across some lost children who were frightened out of their wits so please do let the little one's know what to do if they get separated from you. (Yes, someone helped them locate their family but it still breaks my heart see how scared they were.) We enjoyed our visit to the Deerfield Fair. Although we did not partake of any of their ride options, we very much enjoyed their farm demonstration and exhibits. From the pig barn to award winning veg and chutneys it's a lot of fun. We also took in some heavy stock pulling competition in one of the outdoor areas. I can assure you the shady side was full, so plan on getting a seat early if you need a rest and shade (or sun). I really enjoyed the roving Pirate dressed in full gear, playing pirate and nautical music on his motorized pirate ship. Brought a smile to my face! There are plenty of food options here. Definitely something for everyone and we tried a couple of options. It was a beautiful day and the fair was super busy so there were definitely lines for food no matter the time of day. The staff in the food trucks were all lovely even with all the crowds needing attention. We took a walk through the kids petting zoo, and a tent full of old tractors that was very interesting. They also had a demonstration of several old motorized farm equipment pieces. Whether you are here for historic farm equipment, modern rides, fair food, cow barns, pigs, award winning veg or tractor pulls, Deerfield Fair has you covered. Wear you walking shoes!

The staff are incredibly kind and helpful, and there are some cool exhibits to view including a jet engine and more! Visit this amazing museum if you're an aviation fan and in the area!

One of the best parts is the simulation which lets you fly the plane - and they said it is very accurate you can fly anywhere in the world and it will show what the landscape is like there.

Because most exhibits were not interactive one must mainly read the signage to gather information which might not be interesting to non history lovers or young children.The guided tour is strongly suggested and visitors can look around on their own after the tour. The museum is located across the side street from the Statehouse. I visited the the state house first followed by this museum. In hindsight I would do this museum first and then the statehouse to better assimilate the historic information which both sites share. Parking is on street but there are parking lots and garages nearby. Touring the museum can take 30 minutes to over 1 hour depending on your interest in history.
