As  the name suggests, wild blackberries are the main reason for the festival. The chance to try our wild blackberries in a freshly baked homemade pie attracts people from miles around.  The festival begins with a pancake breakfast held at the Grange Hall, followed by a crafts fair and parade, and ends with a raffle. The day’s events also include games for the kids, a salmon bake and entertainment.  Proceeds from the event have provided scholarships for graduating Crescent High School seniors, funds to community organization and equipment for the Joyce Fire Department.

The PTC has a tent and an information booth at this event. We are looking for volunteers to help with setup, booth duty and takedown. Please contact Joyce Daze Volunteer or call 360-775-5395
