Check out our list of local farmers' markets, and some other ideas for fun things to do this weekend.

MORRIS COUNTY, NJ — Summer fun is all around in Morris County, and Patch rounded up some weekend events for anyone looking for something to do.

The county 4-H Fair is in full swing, with plenty of area youngsters showing off their projects and displaying their farm animals. It's the last weekend for two summer concert series and also the closing weekend for "The Book of Will," a play about how Shakespeare's friends and contemporaries rescued his plays "from oblivion."

And, if you want to visit a local farmers' market this weekend: Chatham Borough, Boonton, Morris Plains and Madison host vendors on Saturday, while markets in Denville and Morristown run on Sundays.
