The Common Ground Country Fair...

All of Maine awaits the 4th weekend of September. That's when the Common Ground Country Fair takes place each year in Unity, Maine. Unlike any other fair in the country, it is host to an amazing display of vendors, demonstrations, classes, performers, and fair goers from all walks of life.

Katie Jarius displays her knitted shawl from her new wool/mohair yarn.

Carriages pulled by horses, oxen, and tractors abound here at the fair...
 

Water whirligigs across the road from my booth.

The Morris dancers preparing for their performance...

The bicycle brigade...

Walking on stilts is a great way to get around.
Put it on your calendar for next year and perhaps I'll see you there...
