Last year??? They held the event last year in the heat of covid? That only would keep me from going this year. Any event planners who are that backward thinking/covid non-beleiving isn’t a group I want to be associated with.
Keep dinking the koolaid and stay home!
I am glad that they are having such a great festival in our area that allows people to get back to normal life again. The time has come for people to get past 5he hysteria and admit that life must go on. And I love blue berries sooo much. Win-win!
That Saturday is the 16th, not the 17th!!!!!!
Brian, it appears you’ve found an article of ours from last year.
CCToday, looks like the Hockinson Blueberry Festival in 2022 is on Saturday, July 16, according to Prairie Berry Farm. Please update this story, and include info about the Clark County berry/produce farms selling produce or open for U-pick.
