Now in its 39th year, our Fair on the Green is the major fundraiser for
Mary Taylor Memorial UMC. Church members plan for months for this
two-day event, which was attended by 7,000 plus people in 2009. Over
140 hand-crafters and fine artists display their work on our beautiful
Milford Green. A plant and bake sale is provided by church members.
There are also food booths that include delicious Hummel hot dogs and
hamburgers, beverages, vegetarian burritos, funnel cakes, and our
Signature Recipe Strawberry Shortcake.
The 2010 Fair on the Green will be held on Friday, June 4th and
Saturday, June 5th.
IMPORTANT FAIR INFORMATION
As we strive to maintain a quality Fair, we only seek hand-crafted or fine arts
items. If you did not participate in our 2009 Fair and/or you are not on our
type and/or fine art that you will be selling, as well as a photo(s) of the area
where you make your product showing the materials you use. Digital photos
via e-mail are acceptable and may be sent to faironthegreen@yahoo.com. If
you do not have an official craft area, you must submit photos of the materials
you use (i.e. shelves of yarn, fabric, paints, canvas, beads, wood, natural
materials, etc.)
All entries will be carefully screened for the following:
1. Only fine art and/or items handcrafted by the exhibitor will be allowed. No
agents, kits, dealer-purchased items, imports or raffles will be accepted.
jewelry, retailers or flea market setups will be accepted.
Spaces on the Milford Green are NOT limited to 10x10 setups, as we have
ample room to fill your needs. We do not hold or reserve spaces. They are of
traffic flow to other vendors when setting up your display. Canopies are
encouraged. Please note that stakes may NOT be driven into the ground.
You will need to support your display with weights.
Setup may begin at 12:00 P.M. on Thursday and continue on Friday morning.
However, if you are participating Saturday only, you may not set up before
4:00 P.M. on Friday. Setup is at your own risk. We do not provide security up
near an outlet. Check to make sure it is operational before you set up.
PLEASE NOTE THAT SETUP IS BEST DONE ON FRIDAY MORNING,
ESPECIALLY SINCE PARKING ON THURSDAY IS DIFFICULT. There is plenty
of premium space on our green for every vendor.
As mentioned in our "Perks" section, if you are alone, please allow our
hospitality committee to relieve you for a break. Someone from the committee
will come to register you for a break time, and a hospitality committee member
will be happy to care for your booth while you are away. We also provide food
runners who will be happy to bring your requested food order to your booth.
Friday & Saturday.
Parking is extremely limited in downtown Milford. Please be sure to read lot
