Sunshine, Shopping, and Shortcake at Chamber Street Fair

Main Street in Center Moriches was alive with crafts, music, food, and foot traffic Sunday as the Chamber of Commerce of the Moriches hosted its Annual Spring Street Fair, adding extra buzz to a busy weekend downtown.

The street was lined with colorful vendor stalls offering everything from arts and crafts to gourmet treats. Jimmy Osborne’s Chain Reaction band kept the event lively as a steady stream of folks and families took in everything the fair had to offer. Even the weather cooperated as a bright, sunshiney day broke a week of rain. 

The event, described as a celebration of “local business and community spirit,” welcomed residents and visitors with free admission and the simple joy of shopping, eating, and enjoying life in a close-knit Long Island town. June bugs also flocked to the firehouse for a plate of shortcake heaped with whipped cream and berries at Company 1’s  Annual Strawberry Festival.
