The fair is run by the Maine Organic Farmers Association. Everything is very "crunchy," and locals refer to it as the "Granola fair." There is no junky midway, you cannot by a soda, or find a plastic straw or any non-biodegradable utensils. The fried dough is organic and whole wheat. The lamb kabobs are from free range, grass fed critters. There are water fountains to refill the bottles you brought with you.
Many people are barefoot, women wear flowers in their hair. There are sweet children everywhere...
... and lots of animals.
Veggies and flowers were abundant...
There was music, floating on the air so sweet you could almost touch the notes...
We saw soft, warm things...
And hard, cold, beautiful things...
We ate healthy fair food, which seems like a bit of an oxymoron.
We ended the day by sitting on our sweet deck and watching the total lunar eclipse. We heard barred owls hooting, Canada geese calling, and (I think)a fox barking at the edge of the woods.
It was an uncommon day.
