The 2013 Long Island Fair will be held once again during September, this time it will be held over the last two weekends of the month.
We are hoping for good weather and warmer temperatures than an October fair would have been. So get started with your planting and craft projects now. This year's Premium Book will probably be much the same as last year's book, but look for changes coming soon.
