Greenfield Hill Congregational Church

 

The
Dogwood Festival

The 75th Annual Dogwood Festival
will take place on Mother’s Day weekend 2010


Monies raised support charity projects in local, regional and international areas


For 75 years, the members of Greenfield Hill Congregational Church have celebrated the beauty of spring time in Fairfield with their Dogwood Festival. From a card table on the church lawn where our Women’s Guild sold handmade crafts the Festival has grown into an event which attracts thousands each year.


Every year, the Festival is an opportunity for church members to share the beauty of our historic hill by welcoming visitors to enjoy the hospitality and fellowship of its festivities.


The Dogwood Festival is always held in May, beginning each year on the Friday of Mother's Day weekend.  Dates for the 2010 Dogwood Festival:  May 7 through 9.
