Today we proudly celebrate the Ukrainian flag, a powerful symbol of freedom, independence, resilience, and hope.

🩵Blue represents the vast Ukrainian sky.
💛 Yellow represents the golden wheat fields that have nourished generations.

Together, these colors represent a nation that has endured, fought, and continues to stand strong. Today, let’s raise the blue and yellow high and remind our Ukrainian brothers and sisters that they are not alone. We stand with Ukraine and will continue to support its people in their fight for freedom and a peaceful future.

Happy Ukrainian Flag Day! 🇺🇦
🩵💛 Слава Україні! Героям слава!

Another incredible festival weekend has come to a close! As we look back, we’re reminded of what makes this festival so special—the people who give their time, energy, and heart to make it happen.

Thanks to all of the volunteers who spend countless hours preparing the delicious Ukrainian food, setting up tents and tables, working behind the scenes, serving guests, cleaning up, and doing all the things that most people never see.

Long before the first festival-goer arrives and long after the last one leaves, these dedicated volunteers are working hard to keep this wonderful tradition alive.
54 years and going strong!

Thank you to everyone who came out, supported the festival, celebrated Ukrainian culture, and helped make this year's festival another tremendous success.
