Okrafest |
|
|
2nd weekend in September |
|
Where: Checotah, OK |
|
|
What: This humble but hardy vegetable was a mainstay for the area’s Native Americans and early homesteaders because it could withstand drought. Today it’s honored with a citywide festival, where it’s cooked and served in every way imaginable. Food tasting and samples of fried okra, a favorite Southern dish. |
