Ferment Pittsburgh hosted the third annual Pittsburgh County Fair at Allegheny Commons Park West on Saturday. Attendees enjoyed a wide variety of local vendors and activity booths, including t-shirt indigo dyeing, knitting, and home brewing. Barn Yard Petting Zoo provided goats and sheep for families to feed at one end of the park while contestants competed in grape stomping on the main stage. The Spurte family won first place, filling an entire bottle with grape juice within a few minutes.
