Ionia County is home to a variety of natural resources, parks, and family events, among them being the world famous Ionia Free Fair. As we continue to develop this web site, we will add more information about visiting our natural resources, parks and family events. In the meantime, you may also want to visit the Virtual Main Street, sponsored by the Ionia Area Chamber of Commerce. Ionia County is rich in historical tradition, with links to the Grand Rapids furniture-making industry to home of a former Michigan Governor. As our web site progresses this section will reveal more detail about the history of Ionia County, including some detail about the History of Ionia County Government. In the meantime, our friends at the Ionia County Historical Society have an excellent site that is worthy of visiting.
