Annual Green Fair Returns to Hoboken

It's time for the second annual Green Fair.

The event — which happened for the first time last year — will be held on May 11 on Pier A Park. (In case of rain, it'll be postponed until May 18.)

The event will run from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. along the waterfront.

Multiple organic food vendors will be there, as well as live music.

The goal of the event is to introduce sustainable lifestyle choices to the community, raise awareness regarding environmental concerns, and demonstrate how consumers can reduce their impact on the earth by selecting sustainable, eco-friendly products and services, reducing energy consumption, conserving water and limiting their dependence on fossil fuels, the city announced.

Those in attendance are encouraged to bring any compostable materials (coffee grounds, grass clippings, peanut shells, etc.) for recycling.
