[F6MoRider]

"Get ready for the 4th Annual Leesburg CornFest, featuring famous Zellwood Sweet Corn, from 10:00am - 7:00pm on Saturday, June 1st. Enjoy live entertainment, festival food, games, and contests for children and adults. Kids will have their own area with blowup rides and games."

Think I'll take my SO up to Leesburg Saturday for some corn!  Maybe over to Webster for the swap meet on Sunday if I have enough $$ to get in after all the corn I plan on buying.

I've never been, but it looks like the corn fest is Saturday only? and webster is Sunday only........

[F6MoRider]

As I (now) understand it, Webster is Sunday only and Yes, the Cornfest is Saturday only.

[Edited] At Webster, as I read in the Webster thread, parking is free but admission, per person, is still charged for one to see if they can find something (else) to buy besides admission.  You do get a beer or water with the price of admission.

Hey guys, Webster motorcycle flea is only on the first Sunday of each month. It's $5 bucks to get in, parking is free. Keep your entry ticket for a free beer, or water.
Been going there for many many years, nice to just rome around and check out bike misc. and some of the cars and bikes in the "show" are often very nice pieces worth seeing. If Cornfest is Sunday, no reason one can't do both as Leesberg isn't that much more up the road. The flea is done early; never been there past 1:00 pm myself. Heck, if time and weather permits might do both myself.

Just to stir a bit more; according to http://www.leesburgpartnership.com/component/content/article/30-3rd-annual-leesburg-corn-fest.html
The 3rd Annual Leesberg Cornfest is June 2, (Sunday) from 9:00 am to 7:00 PM.
(However, a few paragraphs on down the page, "This is a great family event opening with the Saturday Morning Market at 8am! You will be able to purchase un-cooked whole corn at the DLBA booth in front of the clock. At 9am we will start selling hot cooked buttered Zellwood corn for your eating enjoyment, and will sell it up to 7pm or until we run out!").
Not sure if they have the day or the date wrong.........
Admission is free; doesn't mention parking fees so not sure.
Hey if nothing else it's lunch!
Hope the wind calms down a little for Sunday!

Ride safe!
