The Sweet Corn Festival was held Sunday, August 10. Each family received a copy of Burkhardt’s recently published book which highlights the “Country Store Corridor,” a 3.5-mile stretch along the Katy Trail. Burkhardt tells the history of the importance of the country stores to the local communities and the families who benefitted from them. Tram rides were available from the Missouri State Parks Dept. Music was provided at both stores, Treloar and Peers. Proceeds from the sale of brats and sweet corn will benefit the Marthasville Fire Protection District’s Ladies Auxiliary. The event was sponsored by Magnificent Missouri.
