Huckleberries probably make my top ten list of reasons why life is great in the Northwest. These tart-sweet wild berries are at their peak in August. Several communities find this reason to celebrate with an annual huckleberry festival. Here are some that will be taking place in 2012:
- Trout Creek Huckleberry Festival – Trout Creek, MT – August 10-12
- Huckleberry Days Festival – Whitefish, MT – August 10-12
- Huckleberry Heritage Festival – Wallace, ID – August 17-18
- Mt. Hood Huckleberry Festival & Barlow Trail Days – Mt. Hood, OR – August 24-25
