According to the release, the fair will feature handcrafted, high quality gifts; fair-trade coffee, chocolate, and olive oil; clothing, compact discs, and African crafts; and hand-carved items from Palestine. There will also be baked goods, local crafts, used jewelry and books, and pictures with Santa.
