From: Hopkins County Dairy FestivalThe Hopkins County Dairy Festival is an annual celebration of the rich heritage that we have in Hopkins County, as the dairy industry began in the 1930’s and continues to be our number one agriculture enterprise in our community. It’s a salute to the hard-working dairy farmers and their families, who contribute so richly to our local economy and quality of life in Hopkins County.
