Chatham’s Annual “Green Fair”
September 8th, 2009
Chatham will hold its annual “Green Fair” on Saturday, September 12, 2009, at the Gazebo in Chatham Borough next to the train station. The fair will be held from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, rain or shine.
According to Lee Byrd, Borough Environmental Commission Chairman, this fair is a “great opportunity for local residents to see first hand what renewable energy is all about and learn ways to adopt a greener lifestyle.”
Many “green” vendors and contractors will display their earth-friendly products and services. Local environmental organizations will be there to show how to get involved both locally and globally. People can learn about alternative energy sources for the home, such as solar and geo-thermal energy. You can also learn how to take care of your lawn and house without the use of chemicals.
In addition, there will be many fun activities and entertainment for children during the day. The Chatham Farmer’s Market will be taking place at the same time across the street in the train station parking lot, and the Chatham Chamber of Commerce will be holding a sidewalk sale.
