It's Apple n' Pork Festival week in Clinton and it was the talk of a short Clinton City Council meeting Tuesday night.

Acting Mayor and Commissioner of Finance, Tom Edmunds encouraged folks to come to Clinton, enjoy their time here, and support our local groups on the Homestead grounds on Clinton's north side.

Commissioner of Streets and Public Improvements Ken Buchanan told the Council crews are out picking up brush this week ahead of the Festival to make the community look good.

The Apple n' Pork Festival comes up this weekend in Clinton. Tens of thousands of visitors to the community will converge on the CH Moore Homestead grounds as well as out to the 4-H fairgrounds as well as the flea market. Additionally, the west side of the community has seen significant growth in festival-adjacent happenings but organizers encourage getting to the Homestead grounds to support the DeWitt County Museum and CH Moore Homestead and non-profits in the community.
