They're both Czech ethnic festivals. There's a pretty good sized czech population nearby, one church runs an annual "Kolach" festival. Kolaches are fruit filled bready pastries (yum) so they make and sell several thousand dozens as a fundraiser, and then there's games and silent auctions etc, all the usual fest stuff.stjohnjulie said:
Houby is the czecch word for Morel mushrooms, which grow wild and are really covetted by the old czechs (and not to mention the most tasty mushrooms in existence in the world) so they grow in April and May, so there's a festival that surrounds them in May.
Sweet Corn fest happens in August...it's more self explanatory.
