The Cottage Hosting A ‘Berry’ Fun Festival in Owensboro This Weekend

It's Strawberry season and a local farm stand in Owensboro-Daviess County is hosting its first Strawberry Festival and the activities look like a blast.

WHERE'S ALL THE STRAWBERRY FESTIVAL FUN?

Just a few miles from Owensboro at 6869 KY-56 you'll find the sweetest little black and white farm stand full of delicious goodies and delightful faces waiting to take your order.  They are offering a new event and we are pumped about it.  The first Inaugural Strawberry Festival is planned for June 11-12, 9 am to 6 pm on Saturday 11^th and 9 am to 4 pm on Sunday the 12^th.

Make sure you enjoy the yummy strawberry treats!

How about a Strawberry Cake Pop?!  YES, PUHLEASE!!!!

Why not have a strawberry smoothie, to wash down your cake pop.

Get a whole pie or just a slice, just get some.

SCHEDULE OF EVENTS FOR THE WEEKEND

In addition to the strawberry-themed food and treats, the festival will include free entertainment from country artists and local American Idol contestant, Dakota Hayden; and award-winning blues artist Tommy Marsh of Crooked Eye Tommy and Owensboro’s own Tommy Stillwell will take the stage with some of the greatest blues tunes for your soul.
