Dear Artist, Crafter, Business Owner, or Community Organization:

Groton's Fall Festival features food vendors, artists and crafters from across New England, musicians, and many other family-oriented activities at the most highly used and visible park in Groton. Last year's event was incredibly successful with thousands attending and we expect this year's to be even better!
