Veggie Man Day
July 12 @ 11:00 am - 5:00 pm
Free
Come to the second annual Veggie Man Day! It’s a free event for people of all ages to celebrate Fairmont’s very own strange legend.
This event will include artist vendors, guest speakers, live music, food trucks, exclusive Veggie Man Day merch, and more.
Learn about Veggie Man, “a terrifying green being with semi-human facial features with slanting, yellow eyes and pointed ears, and a body that resembled the stalk of some huge ungainly plant.” Read more about Jennings Frederick’s encounter.
