Juneberry Festival

  • Thursday, June 27, 2019, 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM

Juneberries are a deep blue fruit classified with apples and pears rather than berries. Native throughout North America, they are once again being recognized for their high nutritional value. These hardy plants are extremely cold tolerant and prefer to grow in open fields rather than a manicured orchard.

Guy Lister, owner of the Juneberry Farm (www.juneberryfarm.com<http://www.juneberryfarm.com) and one of the largest producers of this native fruit, is joining with Seneca County CCE to host a Juneberry Festival where visitors can:

 Tour the farm and participate in a “you pick” experience
 Discover recipes and information about Juneberries
 Sample the fruit and Juneberry pie
 Enjoy live music
 Buy baked goods from Christ Episcopal Church
 Silo Mac Express Food Truck will be selling food using NYS products

*Bring a lawn chair and please leave pets at home*
