Stars, Stripes & Strawberries is the theme for the 77th Annual WV Strawberry Festival. As Buckhannon gets ready with strawberries in every window, fresh flowers being planted and strawberry treats being featured in local menus, we’ve stopped to reflect on the theme.

Our small town loves our red, white and blue and this summer you will see flags waving on front porches, in front of our beautiful courthouse and along our streets. Those stars and stripes remind us of the real stars in our town, those who volunteer for military service, our fire department workers, and people with giving hearts who make things happen in our community. Hats off to all who serve in our churches, schools and with local activities! That’s part of what makes a BIG difference in our small town filled with flowers, delicious foods and welcoming hospitality.

Won’t you come see us soon?
