Eat, read, buy, sing, learn, shmooze, celebrate Mother Earth!

The Interfaith Green Fair will be an opportunity to learn about an exciting array of environmental programs, services, and goods that can help us to create a more sustainable world.  Visit vendor booths, attend workshops, enjoy children’s activities, and hear how to green your home, congregation and the world.
