Hallockville Museum Farm, the 28-acre preserved farm homestead on the North Fork, will host its 43nd Country Fair on Saturday, Sept. 28 and Sunday, Sept. 29. This year’s Country Fair will feature a family-friendly mix of farm activities, historical tours and re-enactments, folk arts and skills demonstrations, and contemporary music and food trucks on the grounds of Hallockville Museum Farm and adjacent Long Island Antique Power Association on Sound Avenue in Riverhead.
