STRAWBERRIES ON THE SQUARE | July 31
If you were scrolling through lists of local events and growing steadily more bummed by the growing list of canceled events, rescheduled Strawberries on the Square stands out as a bright, red spot of joy.
Belatedly celebrate strawberry season with this signature Franklin event. Strawberries — fresh, on shortcake, with whipped topping and/or in ice cream — will be served on the Square, East Court Street, until they run out. Along with strawberries and food from Chomp’z, Jones Kettle Corn and The Legendary Kitchen, the festival also features live music, continuing well into the night. Strawberries on the Square gets underway at 11 a.m. July 31. Information: discoverdowntownfranklin.com/strawberriesonthesquare.
