2025 Berkshire Blueberry & Book Festival – July 19

Looking for a fun, family activity? Join us at the Berkshire Blueberry & Book Festival on Saturday, July 19, 2025, located on Route 38,corner of Jewett Hill Road, in Berkshire.  Main events run from 9:00-4:00. But early risers can begin with a blueberry pancake breakfast–locally grown blueberries and locally produced maple syrup—running from 7:00 to 10:00 in the Fire Station dining hall.  After breakfast, browse around the grounds of the Library, Community Hall, and Fire Station, and check out the varied artisan and vendor wares, including fresh blueberries. 

On the Community Hall’s top floor, enjoy listening to a variety of musicians while you view the art work of local artists. On the ground floor, you will find a large selection of used books available for a donation. 

Have fun chatting with the local authors and learn about their books, their lives, and the world of publishing. Buy and take home an autographed copy.  

In the Fire Station truck bay, more live music is available while you look over the many raffle baskets and gift certificates. Sample delicious entries from the Blueberry Bake Off.  

By lunch time the ever-popular chicken barbecue, prepared by Berkshire Fire Department, will be ready, or choose from the  other local food vendors. 

And for the young: a Kiddie Parade, bouncy house, pony rides, games, crafts, face painting, a balloon artist, plus more.

For history buffs, visit the Berkshire History Museum on the second floor of the library. 

There is something for everyone! So, gather your family, neighbors, and friends and visit the Berkshire Blueberry & Book Festival on July 19.  You will not be disappointed!

This event provides funding for the Berkshire Free Library, which serves both the Berkshire and Richford communities.
