WEATHERFORD, TX – On Saturday, the Goodday Mineral Wells Team visited Weatherford to enjoy the first day of a special event: Parker County Peach Week! Usually known as the “Parker County Peach Festival,” this celebration highlighted Parker County as the great “Peach Capital” it is!
Many businesses come together in partnership with the Weatherford Chamber of Commerce to make this happen. One of those businesses is the Weatherford Farmer’s Market where many vendor booths and peachy goods are located for this event.
Christy Hall, manager for Weatherford Farmer’s Market, has been managing the venue for one year. Busy with stocking peaches, hanging signs, and coordination, you won’t find Christy seated during the events this week.
“People come from all over! Some come from Oklahoma and even Allen, Texas! I love hearing their stories! This is an annual tradition for many families!”
-Christy Hall
With plenty of treats to eat and events to attend, visitors are bound to have as much fun as our team did:
Many festivities are scheduled until July 18th, so don’t miss your chance to be a part of Peach Week!
