The Harrietta Blueberry Festival began in 2007 when local residents wanted to organize an event to bring community members together. Choosing a locally grown product to celebrate provided a great reason to have games, live music, a parade and of course blueberry pancakes, pies and sundaes.
The festival is a FREE family friendly event! The pie eating contest and frozen t-shirt contest provide entertainment for the participants and viewers alike. A quilt show and petting zoo provides entertainment to audiences of all ages. Many skilled crafters and cooks/bakers offer their creations for sale in booths in the Village Hall and on the streets. You will find ice-cream sundaes, hand-held pies, t-shirts and fresh blueberries for sale, or if you want to pick your own, Blueberry Hill is just down the road!
Live music starts after the parade and a community church service is also held the following morning.
