Second Annual Suffolk Earth and Arts Festival
The Second Annual Suffolk Earth and Arts Festival was held at the Westminster Presbyterian Church recently in celebration of Earth Day. There was live musical entertainment throughout the day provided by Old Myrtle Jam, Brandon Bower Band, FOX and the BEAR and Madison Warner. Master Gardeners were on hand at the plant sale, and artisanal vendors, informational/environmental booths, workshops, food trucks and children's activities entertained visitors of all ages. It was a great day, with well over 1,000 people in attendance.
