Before we know it June 13th will be here! What does that mean? Well, that is the day we will be in Shedden to sell our pies, salsa, jam and muffins. Every year (cross your fingers I haven't jinxed us)we have been blessed with sunny skies and no rain! Shedden comes alive for this weekend as the entire village has garage sales, soccer tournaments, and of course Rhubarb.
Check out this LINK to see what the festival is all about. Here is a little blurb from the official web site.
Yes, this June Shedden will hold its 17th annual Rosy Rhubarb Festival and as we know here in Shedden - like your rhubarb patch - every year it gets a little bigger. This year Rosy's had her very own flag, flying proudly from the Keystone Complex flag pole and banners too. The banners and flags were also adorning Shedden's four corners. This year's Rosy was a success, with lots of visitors, some even from as far away as Georgia and Florida. The local newspapers all published photos and features about the event. Let's hope for a great 17th edition of the festival in 2009! See you again next year! The Rosy Rhubarb Festival is organized and run entirely by volunteers from the community. We wish to thank all of them, special mention going to the following: Southwold Fire Department Talbotville Optimist Fingal and Shedden District Optimist Shedden Soccer Dutton and District Lions Shedden Oddfellows.
