"Misisipi Mike Wolf is a traditional country and folk singer/songwriter whose music has been featured in over two dozen major television shows and feature films. His music draws comparisons to Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings and John Prine among others. He was twice voted as "Best Singer/Songwriter" by readers of the San Francisco Bay Guardian. He has toured Europe six times and toured the US many times, often with Trampled By Turtles. He’s also played with WEEN and Emmylou Harris.. Mostly he loves the Twin Ports!"

We love this guy💛 Don't miss Misisipi Mike Wolf @ 7pm Saturday!

P.s. Not only does he have brilliant songwriting and guitar skill, but he's also designed each & every one of our Squashfest poster/T-shirt images since the beginning. He graciously gives of his time, creativity and patience each year through the long festival editing process. We hope you know how much we appreciate you, Mike!

The Fall Equinox occurs during Squashfest this year! 🌻🌿🍂

We would love to decorate the stage with natural autumnal growth. Our squash didn't pop in time this year, so if anyone has some lying around or wants to put together an arrangement of lingering wildflowers/color, please feel free to contribute!
(no glass please)

We sure do appreciate you🧡 3 days...
