I have lived here in Tehachapi for 16 years and only have attended the festival one time. Quite…read morehonestly that was enough for me. I didn't know what to expect since I am not a big fair or festival person. My son has been in the parade for the last 5 years. That is usually it for me, last year I did the festival too. I realized that I wasn't missing anything all these years. It was just a bunch of vendors selling things I can find in stores. I didn't see many homemade items. The only booth that had some cool things was the one selling chimes . Other than that there was nothing I couldn't live without. Food ....meh, nothing I needed to have. I saw a lot of people drinking. Maybe that's why people are enjoying themselves , for me it would be the food. Nothing good in that department, so I think I will continue staying home during Mountain Fest.

Everything used to be home made or crafty and it's all way too commercialized now. Luckily the Chinese food still comes :) I remember going to this as a kid up to a young adult and remembering all the people that would be here and buying cool things but, not anymore. Not as many people come and it's not the same feel as it used to be. The city has commercialized it too much which is very unfortunate.

If you decided to pick fruit you pay by the pound at the end which is reasonable but the fee per person just to walk around seemed on the high end. They have goats, chickens, peacocks, a variety of birds, chickens and roosters and cool art displays. We saw signs for paintballing and hayrides though I didn't see any wagons operating. The main reason we stopped was to try the Okie Pies. I had never heard of them and I am always looking to try new things. They remind me of a large empanada or handheld meat pie. We tried 3 savory and 1 dessert Okie Pie. They were out of blueberry so we settled for Apple and it was good but super sweet. I love desserts and unless you're a diehard apple pie fan you may find this to be too sweet. Savory flavors were salsa verde, chicken pot pie, and blueberry BBQ pork. The blueberry BBQ sounds odd but it was everyone's favorite. Everyone was very friendly and there was even someone who let the kids pet the goats and roosters. We'll stop on the way back home for more blueberry BBQ Okie Pies.
