Strawberry Festival coming
GREENFIELD — The 39th annual Strawberry Festival is set for 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. June 16.
Strawberries, ice cream and homemade shortcake will be served while supplies last at the southwest corner of Pennsylvania and Main streets. Cost is $8 at the event (cash or credit).
Proceeds will go to support Hancock County Food Pantry, Kenneth Butler Memorial Soup Kitchen, Hope House, Love INC, The Landing Place, Talitha Koum Women’s Recovery House, Friends of Hancock County CASA and Bradley Preschool.
The festival was started in the 1980s by First Presbyterian Church on South Street. That church closed in 2020 — but not before it had passed the shortcake recipe on to nearby Bradley United Methodist Church, which agreed to continue the downtown tradition of both serving the festival fare and having the event benefit community organizations.
