Annual June Corn Festival Fun for the Whole Family

The Coastal Alabama Farmers & Fishermens Market (CAFFM) is hosting
its annual Corn Festival Saturday,
June 15, 2024, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
It’s all about the delicious flavors of the season including juicy tomatoes, cool watermelon and the star of the show, corn! Vendors will have everything patrons have come
to expect including fresh produce, seafood,
meats and baked goods. The festival will also
feature more artisans than ever, which could
help visitors find a one-of-a-kind Father’s
Day gift.
Since Father’s Day is June 16, bring dad out
to enjoy the market and help crown the winner of the first-ever Corny Dad Cook-Off.
Three local chefs who are fathers will be
creating a delicious dish with corn as a main
ingredient and 200 lucky attendees will have
the opportunity to sample each dish and
vote for their favorite.
Bring the kids to take part in all the fun
activities for them including an all ages
corn-eating contest. CAFFM Market Manager Alescia Forland encourages everyone
to drop by and enjoy the festivities.
“It’s the season of flip flops, sunshine, grilling and that first perfect bite of warm corn on the
cob that makes the butter dribble down your chin. We’ve taken that freeing summer feeling
and packed it into a festival full of food and fun for the whole family,” says Forland.
Location: 781 Farmers Market Ln., Foley,
Alabama. 251-709-4469 (ask for Alescia). For more information on the Corn
Festival, see our Facebook page or visit CoastalAlabamaMarket.com.
