Here are a few events to keep you busy this weekend.

Palates are primed and ready for the first annual Slow Food Nation celebration, which runs all weekend in San Francisco, California.

Live music, dancing, parades and wine tasting take over the streets of Dijon, France this weekend at the annual Fêtes de la Vigne (Wine Festival).

The Marshall County Blueberry Festival in Plymouth, Indiana offers a weekend of fun and festivities for the whole family.

Over 300 craft vendors from all across the United States showcase their goods. Local and regional businesses take the opportunity to promote their products and services in the commercial area. And what would a festival be without food. With 100 booths to choose from there is a tasty treat for everyone. Of course blueberries are in abundance especially in our non-for-profit area. These groups offer the very best in blueberry delights like blueberry pie, blueberry ice cream, blueberry shakes, sundaes, donuts, blueberry cheesecake and just plain blueberries!
