8th Annual Taste of Fennimore Gift Box Saturday, April 3, 2021
The Fennimore Area Chamber of Commerce hosted the eighth annual “Taste of Fennimore” event:
Saturday, April 3, 2021
from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
at The Cottonwood Sports Bar and Supper Club – Parking Lot
Due to current pandemic restrictions, the “Taste of Fennimore” will look a little different this year. Rather than having an in-person event, the committee has put together a “Taste of Fennimore Gift Box” that can be purchased. The purpose of this box is to stimulate the local economy that has been affected by the Covid-19 pandemic. The box will include products from past vendors as well as gift certificates for local eateries that have participated in the “Taste of Fennimore” in the past.
2021 Taste of Fennimore Gift Box:
- SALAMI – The Butcher Shop
- BREAD CHEESE – Carr Valley
- RUBY LADY – Spurgeon Vineyards
- CAKE POP – Creative Appeal
- NG RASPBERRY TART – Franks
- GLASS – Franks
- ENERGY COOKIE – Sugar & Spice
- POPCORN – Benders
- CUTTING BOARD – Community First Bank
- SMALL JELLY SAMPLE – Hammerand Farms
