The Painted Cowgirl Market on N. Old Salem Road in Mt. Vernon is hosting a Harvest Festival & Veterans Salute this weekend, Saturday & Sunday from 9a-3p both days. The Festival will feature over 60 vendors, antique tractors, food trucks, and a blacksmith demonstration. Gwen Hails is the owner of The Painted Cowgirl Market. She says while this weekend is for her business and area vendors to come together to provide a kickoff to some great holiday shopping for the community; she says it's also about honoring those that made weekends like this possible. Cowboy Church will take place on Sunday morning at 10am on the grounds of The Painted Cowgirl Market. This is a rain or shine event.

Angela & McKenzie stop by the show to discuss the MASSIVE amount of events taking place in downtown Mt. Vernon and the surrounding Jefferson County area this weekend.

Vernon Township High School FFA are also working with current and former FFA members to collect livestock supplies to send to those affected by the recent hurricanes. If you would like to donate, MVTHS FFA will be collecting items the same time as the scholarship BBQ. Hope to see you there!
