If you missed the 29th annual Zellwood Sweet Corn Festival this year, you missed a great time. It's a weekend of fun for everyone. Carnival rides, lots of food, concerts by "big time" artists and the largest arts and crafts show in the area. The admission price includes a meal of ham, beans, roll, potato salad, ice tea and all the corn you can eat. The sweet Zellwood corn is cooked in "Big Bertha" designed and built for the Zellwood Festival, "She" cooks 1650 ears of corn in 9 minutes. |
