Thanks to Everyone Who Helped Make This Year's Event a Success!

 Thank you to everyone who helped to make this year's Green Gathering a success!  While cool weather and the threat of rain caused many to stay home August 22nd, Hundreds of people braved the weather to join us in Pine Grove Park for our third annual event.

We, the organizers of the Green Gathering would like to take a moment to express our heart-felt thanks to all of the vendors and volunteers for all of their hard work, and to the attendees of the event as well! We look forward to seeing each and every one of you back next year!

Also, we would like to specifically thank: Huber & Breese for the generous use of their sound system, and Grace Episcopal Church.

Be sure to read The Times Herald coverage of the event. And don't forget to check out a short video about the event that was also taken by the Times Herald staff.

If you missed the event, we hope you will be able to join us next year! We are currently considering the date of August 16th, and will be sure to let you know as soon as we have the date finalized.

In the meantime, while it's no substitute for the great atmosphere and personal interactions and stories that were shared at the acutal event, you can check out our exhibitors page, and follow some of the great links to learn more about the many vendors we were proud to welcome this year.
