    After a couple postponements due to the pandemic, the North Stonington Agricultural Fair is back. It's kicking off its 56th annual event on Thursday.

    The fair will present a variety of events and activities: tractor pulls, magic shows, pie-eating and other contests, musical performances by Nick Casey and I Petty the Fool, classic car shows, and more.

    An all-new sensory room will be introduced this year for people of all abilities to visit and take a relaxing break from the festivities, located next to the baby care station.

    If you don't want to miss out on a single event, four-day passes are being sold for $40 each. Tickets are also being sold per day for $12 for adults and free admission for children under 12. Saturday is Senior Citizens Day, and Sunday is Active Military Day: both days are offering half-off tickets for qualifying visitors.

    Come join in on the farming fun.

    North Stonington Agricultural Fair, 5-11 p.m. Thurs. and Fri., 8 a.m.-11 p.m. Sat., and 8 a.m.-6 p.m. Sun., 21 Wyassup Road, North Stonington; $6-$12; www.northstoningtonfair.org.
