September 24 9am-1pm On the Lyme Common

The 2021 Fair Was a Beautiful and Joyful Event!

We all shared and learned about food as love ❤️, life planning, parish and community nursing, emergency preparedness, mental health support and resources, Reiki and yoga practices, healthy farms, eco-friendly bath and body treats, end-of-life services, library resources and information, volunteer opportunities, safe gathering, and more!

Many participated in classes (a wide range of yoga and healthy movement for all ages and intensity levels), preparedness education, peer support, drawing, warm conversation, and other healthy activities.

Neighbors were Vaccinated against Covid-19 (age 12+).

Food was enjoyed, funds were raised, treasures found new homes. Thai food, baked goods, healthy products, and special finds were shared at the Fair and around the Common.

Check back for photos and more updates from the special day!
