Established in 1818 and incorporated in 1870, Fairfield, formerly known as Turkey Town, is located just five miles from Bloomfield on Highway 48 near the Nelson-Spencer County line. Fairfield hosts an annual Homecoming the fourth Sunday of June and the Saturday that precedes it. Saturday has yard sales, history displays and live music; Sunday continues the displays plus church choirs and gospel music. Both days have home-cooked meals for sale.
