The 2007 Chatsworth Cranberry Festival!
Chatsworth Cranberry Festival 2007

Probably the largest festival in the Pine Barrens,and the third largest Cranberry Festival in the U.S., the Chatsworth Cranberry Festival was held this year on Saturday and Sunday, October 20 and 21. Record crowds came out, and all enjoyed crafts, wines, music food, and more, offered by craftspersons, chefs, artisans and other Pine Barrens afficionados.

This is truly a festival of the best kind! There's so much to see, and everyone is wonderful!

All things harvest could be found here, from pumpkins...

 

...to dried flower arrangements.

 

Beautiful hydrangeas were but one of the many choices!

 

These gorgeous bowls were constructed from wood salvaged from the devastation of Hurricane Katrina.

 

Hand-painted totem poles were varied in size and motif, from Santa to wildlife!

Great music was performed all day long by Jersey Bound, a great Southern Rock cover band. They kept everyone's toes tapping!
