The Ventura County Fair features rides, food, and lots of shopping from kitchen accesories to custom license plate frames

What would the home shopping channel look like if you were there in the studio?

It’s sort of like what you can find at the Ventura County Fair, where buildings full of booths feature everything from high tech mops to space age pillows.

The fair is underway on the South Coast, with more than 300,000 people expected to attend before it wraps up this weekend. KCLU’s Lance Orozco has a taste of this old fashioned part of the fair.
