Mushroom Festival

The next town over is hosting their 19th annual Mushroom Festival tomorrow and Sunday.
The Mushroom Festival
Last year the cable Food network show 'America's Festivals' ( I believe) were there filming the festivities. We didn't go last year and missed all the hoopla. We saw the show when it aired and recognized most of the people they spoke to. Sean's kindergarten teacher Mrs. Bazzano was a cook in the mushroom soup contest! There are lots of growers around, many who have been growing for years and have practically cornered the mushroom market. We have mushroom farms all around us, not good for the allergies. But what a fun kind of festival! They use to have a big parade and Sean was on his elementary school's float a few times which was fun. I got to walk along side the float and one year I dressed like a 30s moll (it was a Hollywood theme).
