Organizers of Unity's Common Ground Country Fair have announced that the event will not take place for the second straight year. The Maine Organic Farmer and Gardeners Association says that it's cancelling event because of the pandemic and rising COVID-19 cases across the state. The group says that while many people worked to put on a fair this year, it feels that a "large-scale community building event should not take place in the current COVID-19 situation." The association says it's looking at potential alternatives.
