☀️ Blueberries, shopping, sweet treats, and summertime fun — it’s almost time for one of Ocean Springs’ favorite traditions! 🎉

Join us in downtown Ocean Springs for the Annual Red, White & Blueberry Festival in partnership with the Ocean Springs Fresh Market 🍓💙 Spend the day exploring local vendors, enjoying delicious blueberry-inspired goodies, watching live cooking demonstrations 👩‍🍳, and soaking up the festive atmosphere with family and friends.

🍦 Don’t miss FREE vanilla ice cream topped with fresh blueberries and strawberries while supplies last!

A special thank you to our sponsors — Kilwins Ocean Springs, Naturally Guided Health, Cutco Cutlery, and Gulf Coast Produce Distributors, Inc. — for helping bring this sweet community celebration to life 🙌
