The fresh produce available at Saturday’s Earth’s Bounty Festival truly puts the “bounty“ in Earth’s Bounty. What will likely be the last of the year’s produce should include peas, turnips, okra, potatoes, squash and cucumbers.
Autumn is also pumpkin time at Earth’s Bounty, so kids will love one of their traditional favorites—pumpkin painting, with the colorful and unique pumpkins to take home with them.
While shopping, enjoy the classic rock sounds of Chad Peavy. Chad is a favorite at the festival, and also at a number of local clubs and restaurants, where he brings a fresh vibe to rock music classics.
While planning for Fall holiday decorating, check out the traditional red bandanas at the registration booth. These classic bandanas are on sale for $5, and are a perfect touch on scarecrows, hay displays and Halloween costumes. At the booth, also be sure to register for our monthly drawings—a basket of great items from the MAX, including one, free, annual membership, and the popular grocery gift bag loaded with fresh products from Earth’s Bounty.
The MAX celebrates its partnership with Earth’s Bounty with free admission for EB customers to its museum and gallery on festival Saturdays. Current exhibitor is Cecelia Moseley, a Meridian native who creates stunning sculptures such as steel creations with lyrical curves, and vivid acrylic installations.
Don’t forget to stop just outside the entry gates and take a look at unique handcrafted items at Art Farm, a companion to Earth’s Bounty. Among the artists there will be Rick Williams, who displays hand-crafted items at Pop’s Pottery.
It’s all available at Earth’s Bounty on Saturday, October 4 from 8 a.m. until noon in the MAX Courtyard on the corner of 22nd Avenue and Front Street.
