Approximately
half of the peanuts grown in the United States are grown within a
100-mile radius of Dothan, Alabama.
The National
Peanut
Festival (NPF) -- the nation's largest peanut festival -- is
held each fall in to honor peanut growers and to celebrate the
harvest season.
The fairgrounds are located on Highway 231 South -- just
three miles south of the Ross Clark Circle. The festivities
include
numerous fun-filled family events,
such
as amusement rides, animal acts, agricultural displays, live
music concerts, beauty
pageants, arts & crafts displays, contests,
food,
a two-hour parade, of course, tons of
peanuts! Come join us!
The National Peanut Festival would like for you to know that our
facilities are available for year-round rentals. Fill out the
