NACOGDOCHES, TEXAS - The Nacogdoches County Chamber of Commerce announced the postponement of the 31st Texas Blueberry Festival presented by Tipton Ford scheduled for Saturday, June 13, 2020. 

 

“The impact of COVID-19 has forced the Blueberry Committee to recommend to the Nacogdoches County Chamber Board of Directors that this event be postponed until later this year,” said Texas Blueberry Festival Chairperson Grace Handler. “The amount of advance planning for this event and the uncertain health environment forced us to make this difficult decision. We will reevaluate this decision later this year to determine if we will move forward with this event.” 

 

The Texas Blueberry Festival attracts annually over 20,000 visitors and has over 200 vendors and exhibitors. Updates and information will be posted at www.TexasBlueberryFestival.com. 

 

C. Wayne Mitchell, President & CEO of the Chamber is hopeful that the event can be rescheduled later this year. “I believe that once we get past this current situation our visitors and participants will be ready to engage and celebrate the many blessings of Nacogdoches County,” Mitchell said.
