N.C. State Fair Goes Green

10_20_06_fairnumbers.jpgThe N.C. Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services announced in a press release it has added two electric vehicles to its State Fairgrounds fleet, thanks to a Clean Fuel Advanced Technology grant.

Electric vehicles isn’t the first way the fair has gone green, the fairgrounds uses bio-diesel to power the Gov. Kerr Scott building year-round, as well as some midway rides during the fair. The fair also recycles cooking oil and animal manure.
