Glennville Sweet Onion Festival
GLENNVILLE, Ga. (WSAV) — A little rain couldn't put a damper on the fun in Glennville Saturday. Even though the weather didn't cooperate completely, the crowds were still full of smiling festival-goers.
The Glennville Sweet Onion Festival is the town's biggest annual event. Glennville is the largest town in Tattnall County, which grows more Vidalia Sweet Onions than any of other official Georgia Department of Agriculture Sweet Onion growing counties, contributing approximately half of the entire state crop each year.
The Glennville Sweet Onion Festival celebrates the harvesting of the yearly Vidalia sweet onion crop.
Amy Terrell, the president of the Glennville Chamber of Commerce, said the rain didn't deter the 120 arts & crafts vendors, 75 parade entrants, the 20 food vendors or the locals who supported them Saturday. 'It's good for the community to come together, to be one, to be whole. There's so many people who offer so many things. And this is the perfect opportunity to support small business and get to know those people on a one-on-one basis.'
