Trout Creek Huckleberry Festival

42 years ago, the Huckleberry Festival was started by a group of artists who sought a spot to sell their creations. People flock to taste and purchase the berries, sold on the park grounds at the green building, to benefit the festival. Food vendors feature the tasty “purple gold” in ice-cream cones, on cheesecake, in drinks, and in a variety of desserts. The Trout Creek Fire Department offers its Saturday and Sunday morning huckleberry pancake breakfasts and both children and adults compete in the dessert contest.
More than 100 arts and crafts vendors, live music and entertainment, a parade, 5K run, auction, children’s activities and a pie-eating contest are also on tap.
