Some of my friends from far southeastern ohio mentioned the Ohio Chile Pepper Festival. I did some research, and the August 12 Edition of the Athens News (www.athensnews.com) has details - the Festival will run September 24-26 in Glouster, Ohio, (northern Athens county) home of Frog Ranch pepper and salsa products. Also note, the 3rd annual Ohio Smoked meat and Barbeque Festival will be held in Nelsonville, Ohio, the weekend of October 16. Don't forget, the first annual SE Ohio Hotluck in Canal Winchester, Ohio, Saturday, September 18, directions to follow soon!
