Carrot Fest Flashback

On this day 19 years ago, the article "Carrot Fest - Getting back to our agricultural roots" was published in the Bradford West Gwillimbury Times promoting Carrot Fest 2000, the town’s first three-day festival.
If you glance through the article, some interesting event features that year include:

• Helicopter rides
• Talent show
• Carrot cake competition
• Vegetable art and poetry competition
• Baby Gwilly contest
• Gwilly look-alike contest
• Gwilly’s Lunch: carrot soup, carrot meat loaf, carrot-stuffed peppers, carrot casseroles, carrot salad

Would you like to have any of these features return to Carrot Fest in the future? Or are there new activities/entertainment you’d like to see at Carrot Fest? Let us know in the comments, we’d love to hear your ideas!
