If you love a certain food, learning that there's an entire festival dedicated to said food can be pretty exciting.

Details are sparse but, here's what we know so far:

  • The festival will take place on July 4th

Are you more of an "exercise" pickle lover and not a "sit on the couch for hours binge-eating an entire jar of pickles" pickle lover? Great news...the Pickle Festival is such a big deal in the Berrien Springs area that they're also featuring a 5k Run/Walk.

The 'In a Pickle 5k Run/Walk' will happen on June 18th during the pickle preview weekend (that would sound really odd in the wrong context.) Since we are a few months out from the Pickle Festival and the 5k Run/Walk, information is vague. It would be best to follow the Berrien Springs Pickle Festival Facebook page to stay up to date on all details.
