Chincoteague Island Blueberry Festival
It’s not summer yet, but your Road Trips Foodie is already dreaming of fresh blueberries. One place to celebrate the treat is the 24th Annual Chincoteague Island Blueberry Festival, set for July 22 through 24, 2011, at the Chincoteague Center, 6155 Community Drive, Chincoteague, Virginia.
Sure, there’ll be arts and crafts, music and entertainment, but we go for the food: old-fashioned, made-from-scratch blueberry shortcake; the ultimate blueberry pie; homemade blueberry ice cream; blueberry pancakes, and blueberry muffins (not to mention fresh blueberries to eat in the car).
