The 37th Annual Louisiana Corn Festival wrapped up its final day in Bunkie on June 14, marking another year of fun, food and tradition in central Louisiana.
Held every second weekend of June since 1986, the Louisiana Corn Festival is the only one of its kind in the state. It was created to recognize the vital role that corn plays in Louisiana’s agricultural economy, and each year, one local corn farmer is honored for their contributions to the industry.
