Royal Oak Hosts Annual Corn Roast & Country Fair

ROYAL OAK (WWJ) - The Royal Oak Farmers Market is hosting the city's 13th Annual Corn Roast & Country Fair on Saturday, August 11 from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m.

Take a stroll viewing the many unique artisans while sipping on cool, hand squeezed lemonade or eating fresh roasted corn. Enjoy traditional fair munchies, all while listening to local bands. The kids will enjoy games, face painting, jump in the moonwalk or enter the corn or pie eating contests. Mom and Dad can try to "Dunk-A-Cop" with proceeds benefiting the Royal Oak Police Honor Guard.

Since the event is held at the Royal Oak Farmers Market, you can pick up fresh fruits and organic produce, free range eggs and chicken, or Michigan made yogurt and ice cream.

Other proceeds from the event will benefit improvements to the farmers market.

The Royal Oak Farmers Market is located at 316 East 11 Mile Road.
