Loveland Invites all Cherry Lovers this Weekend for the Cherry Pie Festival

Who can't sink their teeth into a Cherry Pie Festival! Join the Loveland Museum/Gallery on Saturday, July 19 for some of the best Cherry pie this side of the Mississippi!

You may not know, but at one time, Loveland held the bragging rights to the largest cherry orchard west of the Mississippi River. In fact, over $1M in cherry sales every year.

To honor this great achievement, the City of Loveland, and the Loveland Museum/Gallery, will again be the host site for the Cherry Pie Festival as a salute to the cherry industry. The event will be held this Saturday, July 19 from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. The event is 100% free to attend and will take place in Peters Park right next to the Museum.

Vendor booths, family-friendly activities and the Art of the Tart Cherry Pie Contest. And what would a pie festival be without lots of pie, so yes, you will be able to purchase as much pie and ice cream as your stomach will allow. The festival ends with a bang with live music from Papa Juke starting at 5:00 p.m. and then the Joe O’Bryan Band starting at 6:45 p.m.

I wonder if they need a judge?  Hint, hint...
