The Flower Barrel competition is over and the winners will be announced at the Garlic Festival. Hats off to all the green thumbs that gave us such an awesome display of flowers on Main St. It was a tough summer of heat and little rain to grow anything but weeds but the contestants barrels looked awesome.
