Hopkins Raspberry Festival…Not!
If you’re road trippin’ through Minnesota right now, don’t swing by Hopkins. Even though you might be enticed by the name of the event — the 75th annual Raspberry Festival — there isn’t a raspberry to be found. The festival, July 11-19, 2009, is fun family events, arts & crafts, music and a 5K run — but the raspberry fields are long gone from this part of Minnesota. Too bad!
