The annual Berry Festival in Berry Creek occurred last week. I headed up to a small community in the foothills that come out in the masses for a special homemade berry goodness. The Berry Festival is a celebration for the community. It is such a neat event, I decided to try my hand at making a video to show the culture of the festival. There is just an ambiance from the area that can't necessarily be captured by a still photograph. The sounds along with the sights make this festival special.

People were able to pre-order a berry pie, which proved to be smart, being that the festival ran out of pies in about an hour.
