Harvestfest, Day 2

Monday, September 21st, 2009

Sunday was the Bean Soup and Cornbread Day our customers begin to ask about in the Springtime!  “Are you going to have that “bean soup and cornbread day” again this year?

Yes, we are, and yes, we did!

Bean Soup

The parking lot was a madhouse (I stopped watching as people backed out amid the cars double-parked in the lot and along the highway!) and folks brought lawn chairs and listened to the band.  This year we had Bluegrass Express and they were wonderful!

If you didn’t get a chance to see the exquisite (and I don’t often use that word) leaf creations from Earthly Delights, you have another chance.  She’ll be back next Sunday for another go ’round.  The larger leaves could be used as a birdbath or bird feeder, the smaller ones as a garden ornament or…whatever you like! They are so beautiful, colorful and organic! 

We’ll also have chili and cornbread from 1-4 (or while it lasts!) and music from Blue Haze from 1-3.

Harvestfest Is Just Around the Corner

We’re busy getting ready for our annual Harvestfest celebration. Harvestfest is our biggest event of the year, and this year we’ve extended it to include two weekends, September 19th and 20th, and September 26th and 27th.  We have free food and activities for adults and kids on both Saturdays, and free food and music on both Sundays.  We have outside vendors who will join us to add to the fun.  Check out the schedule here, and make plans to join us for some down home enjoyment!
