We came, we saw, and we consumed! Thank you so much for making the 7th Annual Edible Book Festival one for the books (haha). It was a true delight seeing all of the community support and involvement, which included 29 registrations this year from both adults and youth!

Cake? There's free cake?

Thank you to everyone who participated in Saturday's Edible Book Festival at Third Place Commons. Hundreds of people came out to view the culinary creations on display and vote for their favorite!

Horton hears...

The Who!

If you are not familiar with the Edible Book Festival, creations were inspired by a book, but made out of edible ingredients —sweet or savory. Check out some of the unique and amazing entries from the event!
