Farm-to-Table Movement at North Meets South Fair

Enjoying a beautiful fall weekend, residents turned out for the North Meets South Fair at the Suffolk County Farm in Yaphank.

The event brought together the best of Long Island’s farm-to-table movement, with diverse food and drink options, family fun, and more than 60 artisan vendors. Festival-goers had a wide selection of food options and local beers and wines, making it an excellent destination for food and drink enthusiasts.

For adults, there were engaging activities like ax throwing, permanent jewelry, hair tinsel, jumbo garden games, and henna. Families enjoyed a meet-and-greet with farm animals, face painting, hayrides, live music, and a host of other kid-friendly attractions.
