The 54th edition of the Apple n' Pork Festival was ushered in with perfect weather for the Saturday of the two-day festival.
At the ham n' bean stand just off the front drive of the CH Moore Homestead grounds, the line was lengthy well before 11 am and continued to be long for a few hours. Nathan Lippert told Regional Radio they hoped to match their sales from a banner year in 2021.
Maurine Collins-Kolb helps man the information booth at the Apple n' Pork Festival and explains a lot of people that stop by their small booth are asking for a map of the grounds or where some of their favorite foods are at.
Local authorities estimate 62,448 people attended day 1 of the Apple n' Pork Festival. That falls just short of last year's Saturday record of 62,960.
