CONWAY — Peel, slice, mix, coat and repeat. About 400 pans of homemade apple crisp later, the Conway Village Congregational Church was ready for the 2025 Fryeburg Fair.
The Conway Village church, often called the Brown Church, has been making apple crisp for the annual fair since 1991, according to the Rev. John Hughes and other church members on site Wednesday. The church has had a food vendor booth at the Fryeburg Fair since the 1960s.Â
