The following is a press release issued by the Cobb Area Council:
On August 24, 2024, the community of Cobb in Lake County will host the 4th Annual Blackberry Cobbler Festival, taking place at Belmont Pines, formerly Mountain Meadow Venue, located at 16451 Golf Rd in Cobb, during the hours of 11 AM to 5 PM.
The Cobb Area Council, in partnership with the Seigler Springs Community Redevelopment Association (SSCRA), produces this event for the community and the surrounding areas to attract new visitors to Cobb, and to celebrate its local products and services.
This themed festival is a showcase of local businesses, musicians, artisans, and community organizations. This includes 70+ vendors selling everything from blackberry scented soaps and candles to blackberry-infused vinegars and baked goods.
Live music on stage at Mountain Meadow will be provided by The Lost Coast Smugglers and Three on the Tree. The seriously competitive Blackberry Cobbler Recipe Contest awards the winners with gift cards from sponsors. Art is a big part of the festival, and the local artists will bring their creations in various mediums such as ceramics, stained glass, oil painting, woodworking, jewelry and photography.
Locally donated beer and wine will be available for purchase. After visiting various food vendors, attendees can enjoy the signature Blackberry Cobblers sold by the local chapter of the Cobb Mountain Lions Club. The Kids Zone will allow them to expel all that energy in their own special area. Environmental and wildfire protection information will be shared at the SSCRA booth.
By attracting visitors to Cobb Mountain for this popular summer festival, the Cobb Area Council proceeds towards their goal of improving the local economy and the visibility of the Cobb community to Lake County and its surrounding areas. As it continues to rebound after the Valley Fire of 2015, this has become Cobb’s signature event of the year, with a turnout expected to be similar to 2023’s turnout of approximately 4000 attendees.
