If you love pickles, you may want to make plans for a trip to Pease, Minnesota later this month.

The small Central Minnesota community is getting ready to turn itself into a giant celebration of all things dill when the Pease Pickle Fest returns Saturday, September 26th.

PICKLES PICKLES PICKLES

Pease isn't just bringing you a festival with a pickle or two thrown into the mix. Pickles are the stars of the show.

PICKLES - THE STAR OF THE SHOW

More than 120 vendors are expected to take over Pease, along with food trucks, beverage trucks, a classic car show, bouncy houses, games, and plenty of activities for families.

Of course, you'll probably want to arrive hungry.

BRING YOUR APPETITE

Festival food vendors are getting creative with the pickle theme. 'The Timeless Trough' will be serving fresh-squeezed pickle lemonade, while 'Under the Hood' will have crispy fried pickles and dill cheese curds.

PICKLE BOMBS?

'Hennum's Hungry Hauler' will serve its Pickle Bombs, and 'The Smashed Cow' will have specialty smash burgers.

If you're looking for something a little more substantial, 'Heavenly Hog' will serve mac and cheese and pork chops. And yes, there are even pickle cupcakes. 'AHTA Cakes' will be bringing those sweet treats to the festival.

The Pease Pickle Fest is a great example of how a small Minnesota community can put together a big event that draws people from all over the area.

Whether you're a pickle fanatic who puts dill on just about everything or you're simply curious enough to try pickle lemonade, there should be plenty to keep you busy.

And if pickles aren't your thing, there will still be plenty to see and do with the vendors, classic cars, games, and family activities.
