Strawberry Festival
June 24, 2017 @ 9:00 am - 1:00 pm
It’s Strawberry time! Our vendors have really stepped up to our challenge to create a product that showcases strawberries. The results are mouth-watering and diverse. Many will be available for tasting. See the list of vendors for these special offerings. Also be sure to visit our Premier Sponsor, Stone’s Public House, for dinner this weekend. Save room for a special strawberry-themed dessert in honor of our Strawberry Fest!

1634 Meadery: Strawberry Fields strawberry cinnamon mead. Mounds of beautiful, locally grown, red fragrant berries make this mead stand out. On the tongue, the berry flavor explodes and gives the imbiber thoughts of strawberry festivals and early summer, with an added a hint of cinnamon that lingers on the palate. This mead is a semi-sweet wine, that has been sweetened with honey to balance the tartness of the berries. There will also be 2 other offerings: Strhuberry – local berries, local rhubarb, local wildflower honey; And Jason’s Blunder – local wildflower honey, cranberries, raspberries and strawberries
