A bushel of fun continues through Monday, May 30, in Garden Grove.
The community’s Strawberry Festival has been welcoming back visitors all weekend long after a pandemic-forced hiatus. Now in its 62nd year, the festival has already hosted its always popular parade, held on Saturday, and on Sunday the Berry, Berry Beautiful Baby Contest was held.
On Monday, at 11 a.m. is the Redhead Roundup Contest in the Garden Amphitheater, 12762 Main St., signups are taken the hour leading up to it. There is also a brick-building contest for kids in the amphitheater at 1 p.m.
And the slew of entertainers that have performed this weekend continues until 6:30 p.m. Monday. Village Green Park at Main Street and Euclid Street is filled with carnival rides, booths and lots to eat … including strawberries.
