Letter from our General Manager, Paula Harris
There’s just something special about spring! And after this year’s long, snow-filled winter, we’re all ready to stretch our legs and enjoy the warm sun. We’re getting ready to celebrate spring Co-op-style with our eight annual Spring into Healthy Living® Fair on Saturday, May 16, 10 am - 2 pm in Concord. We hope you’ll join us for the family-friendly party!
This fair is our biggest event of the year, drawing more than 5,000 people each year to enjoy free food samples from local farmers and vendors, children’s events, live music, and more! This event is SO big, we have to close down a portion of Main Street to accommodate our block party!
We’ve brought back all your favorites that have made this event so special. Of course, the highlight of the event is the free food and drink! Approximately 100 vendors will be on hand to let you try the products we sell and answer your questions.
Here’s just a sampling of this year’s offerings:
- Highland Cow rides with Miles Smith Farm
- Traveling Barnyard petting zoo
- P&R Reptiles
- The Club Soda Band
- The Creation Station
- The Vegetable Ranch seeding pots for kids
- Jake’s Old Fashioned ice cream
- Celery Stick Cafe cooking demonstrations
- Co-op Bakery desserts
Enjoy food and drink samples from a wide range of local and regional vendors including Champlain Orchards apple products and hard cider, Micro Mama’s kimchi, Michele’s Gourmet Popcorn, and much, much more! See our website for more details.
Whether you’re a carnivore or vegan, gluten-free or localvore, health nut or gourmand, you’ll find plenty of delicious treats at the event.
If you try and like it, you’ll want to drop into the store to buy it! You’ll get 10% off groceries in the store during the fair (usual exceptions).
This event will be held Rain or Shine. No matter what, we’ll be cozy under the big top tent. Can’t wait to see you there!
