Blackford County, Indiana
Blackford County is a small slice of rural Indiana, located in the east-central part of the state. Hartford City serves as the county seat.
It’s not a place you’ll find in many tourist guides, but it has its own charm. These days, agriculture is the backbone of the local economy. Corn and soybeans are major crops.
The Blackford County 4-H Fair brings in folks from all around. It’s the kind of place where Friday night high school football games are still a major social event.
