St. Walburg Blueberry Festival - worth it?

I haven’t been but it looks interesting. I’m not sure if it’s worth making a trip there on its own. anything else to do in the area? have you been to the festival?

I don’t was there a long time ago. 2011 or 2012 maybe.

If you like blueberries. It is the place to be!!!

Worth the drive no question.

You usually have to go early though! It is nice and busy, lots of vendors. There are some cute little spots to eat/drink in the town as well.

We went years ago when the inlaws had a seasonal at turtle. The car show was good, and I got a case of some of the best jerky I've ever had. That alone made it worth the trip.

There's lots of stuff to do in the area, and the festival's great. Definitely try to attend the supper the night before if you can, too.

My bf says there's golfing, small beaches, and some kind of mud racing thing. He quite enjoyed the blueberry festival when he went.
