Ridge Peach Festival

Well folks here is another festival my wife and i went to in June 2016 and we will be back again!…read moreWhy? Because it was super fun and not to big. It showcased how country folks enjoy the day and the harvesting of their crops. This festival is located in Trenton, SC, head north then turn left towards GA you'll see it on your right! When we arrived we found ample parking, We parked so close you could smell the peaches! The layout of the festival highlights the main stage on one side and the peaches for sale on the other , with vendors and craftsman all around. The food area was in the back. It was sponsored by "Billy's Super Store". I guess they wanted you to exercise as you go get a deep fried Oreo, or a Big Boy Cookie! Ok the Big Boy Cookies are amazing! They do deliver! We found a number of vendors selling homemade items we haven't seen elsewhere, for a good price.Good thing the car was parked close! Whether you love crafts, tractors (I do love tractors!) sweet looking cars, or delicious food, the Ridge Peach Festival has something for everyone, even my Yankee wife!. A Country Store featuring home canned peach preserves, jams, and jellies, along with peach desserts and ice cream are all waiting for you to eat and buy! And we did! The peaches were harvested that morning at Trenton farms down the road a piece and we were able to buy a large basket of peaches for only $10! and they were only three hours off the tree when we bought them! We went to one of the food vendors and i ordered a hot dog with everything with fries and my wife had the cheeseburger with everything. It was fun to watch them cook on the grill and talk to them. we found a table with a good view of the parade which was getting ready to start. Nothing makes a day better than eating good food and watching a country parade! Oh yes it was really a country parade, all with a band, firetrucks, cloggers, horses and bikers! Fun to watch as we devoured our lunch but we still had some room for the specialty of the fair, peach ice cream! Dear me the line was long for the ice cream but I must say it was worth it! So fresh and creamy. They had a really nice children's area sponsored by "Log Creek Timber and Ridge Parts and Supply" Did I mention we were in the country? Over all we really had a great time in this small town. I was told by one of the vendors this festival has been around since 1970 and they were expecting about 15,000 folks here! All I can say was when we were leaving there lines of cars down the road waiting to get in. I encourage everyone down here in the lowcountry to try some of the small town festival and be sure to eat a fried Oreo! By the way their porta a potties were super clean and nice smelling. In fact they had folks whose only job that day was to keep them clean! Now that's friendly!

Toccoa Harvest Festival - The set-up is on point!

Toccoa Harvest Festival

THE TOCCOA HARVEST FESTIVAL!…read more The Toccoa Harvest Festival takes place in downtown Toccoa in Stephens County during the last week of October. It is now in its 40th year. We decided to visit for the first time this year. We headed out before dawn and as the sun came up, we enjoyed the beautiful scenery and change of colors. As per usual, we had planned to get there at least an hour before the start of the actual event which was scheduled to start at 10 am. We actually arrived around 8:30 am and was surprised to see several vendors already set up as well as volunteers providing directions. These small town people don't play! After eating breakfast we set out to view the vendors' wares and to see what was "poppin". My first stop was at the classic car show where I met Kent and his classic blue Chevy truck, (see the photo). `I absolutely love classic vehicles, (especially trucks), so I always have to get the "back story". This truck was purchased approximately four years ago when it was seen on someone's property. Kent had asked about the truck but the man had said that his son was planning on purchasing it. Approximately one month later, Kent saw the truck and stopped by again. At that time he was told that someone else was interested in the car and had stopped by earlier in the day. Kent offered the man cash on the spot and sealed the deal. He then spent the next four years stripping the truck and rebuilding it. All of the work was done in his garage or yard, including the paint. I was blown away to know that he had completed all of the work, (except the welding) himself. He did a phenomenal job because he showed me his book that documented the process. Collectors always have a book to document their restoration process so just ask if you are curious. I really enjoyed talking to this guy! We met another guy who had this sick 1935 International "flower wagon" that was once used to transport flowers to funerals. It too had been totally stripped and restored with a beautiful red interior and custom additions. Incredible! I could have spent hours here but I needed to explore more. There were a variety of vendors selling a variety of items such as candles, holiday décor, homemade soaps, jewelry, toys, hair accessories, art leather goods and more. I ran into my favorite jewelry vendor who I tend to purchase sets from exclusively. She didn't have anything that I don't already own so I ordered a custom piece that I will pick up at the next festival, because we just tend to run in the same circles. I must confess that I am getting a great deal because I am a repeat customer and she wants a pound cake! She is one of the few vendors who actually uses sterling silver and genuine stones while the others will just tell you that those materials are too expensive. I also like her because she does the larger adjustable statements pieces with matching earrings. Enough about my favorites! They had a Christian choir singing in the square, an activity area for children, full service restrooms that didn't include a porta-potty, great food options including Lobster, Mongolian Beef and Thai, carriage rides, baked goods, and probably some things that I just did not get to see. It was a beautiful day for the festival and it all started with a beautiful drive up from Alpharetta and ended with a visit to see the falls. When you visit the festivals, take time to see the landmarks visit the local vendors and spend time in the community. Your visit is always appreciated! By the way, if you like the frequent sound of trains running through a small town, Toccoa is your kind of town!
