Virginia Goes Nuts! (Virginia Peanut Festival)

They say that Virginia is for lovers. I guess Virginia's parenthetical object of affection is peanuts: Virginia is for lovers (of peanuts).

For such a small nut, the peanut inspires quite a festival which glorifies the nut…and the art of peanut harvesting. The 45th annual celebrations include (but are not limited to): Marching bands, arts and crafts, pony rides, and a commemorative civil war exhibit!??!!

Whether or not you're a Lover from Virginia, nuts are pretty yummy. Forgot to buy your plane ticket to Virginia? Celebrate the nuttiness wherever you may be with promotional nuts. Yum.
