  2. The Local Fairs

    Share Share Post
    The local fairs are held in Gorey, Ferns and Enniscorthy. The fair in Gorey is held on the first Saturday in every month. The fair in Enniscorthy is held on the third Tuesday in every month. The buyers very often transact business at farmers' places. There were fairs held in places that have not been continued because the buyers come around and buy stock at the farmers' places.
