2011 Rhubarb Festival

Saturday is Kitchen Kettle Village Rhubarb Festival!!! If you havn't been to Kettle Kitchen before it's a must for any tourist in the area. Simple shops carry anything from clothes pin dolls to smoked meats and cheeses. They also have special events that happen throughout the year. Tomorrow is the Rhubarb Festival. If you don't know what Rhubarb is then take a look at the picture. It's a interesting veggie that you must get accustomed to in order to like it. It's extremely bitter but taste great with a little sugar. Used in recipes it turns into a wonderful staple for fruit sauces. Festivites run all day tomorrow but you don't want to miss the Rhubarb Stroll at 2pm. This is a parade of the Rhubarb King and Queen and the Rhbuarb ladies. Yummy, Kitchen Kettle's mascot, will be there with some other mascot friends to help celebrate this unusal food. The kids would love it. Don't forget to stop by the Yummy's Toy Box and visit with our friend Rosie who has amazing toys and gifts for everyone, yes even the kid at heart. There is also a petting zoo and playground. We will be there with bells on to join in the fun. Look next week for pictures from our trip. Kitchen Kettle Village is located on Route 340 in Intercourse, PA.
