Sweet Competition Returns to Union County Heritage Festival

Union County bakers, it’s time to preheat the ovens—the Cake and Pie Contests are back for the 2025 Union County Heritage Festival. This much-loved tradition brings together the community’s best bakers while raising funds to support the Union County Family & Community Education (FCE) Club.

The contests are free to enter and open to all ages. Entries must be completely homemade, with no store-bought mixes, frostings, crusts, or fillings allowed. Each entry should be accompanied by a recipe card and completed registration form.

House of Mirrors

The fair was a big deal when I was a kid. Back in the day, we went to school half a day when it opened. If we went to the fair, it was a family trip. To me, it was always an exciting mini adventure. After I grew older, my mom and I tagged along with my friends. One such trip happened at the fair of 1980. It was one to remember.

Random Acts of Flowers

The Union County FCE (Family Community Education) Club spent their September meeting at the TVA Fair in Knoxville. We carpooled down and we were provided Free parking passes and Free admission thru UT Extension.

Four of the eight ladies won nice door prizes and had snacks. The program began with a lesson in how to put together a flower bouquet from fresh cut flowers out of your garden.
