Our Peanut Festival Committee spent the afternoon yesterday serving lunch to the City of Sylvester Public Works and Police Department as a small thank you for the big work they put in every year.

The festival wouldn’t run the way it does without their long hours, quick problem-solving, and constant support.

El Metates catered the meal and absolutely knocked it out of the park. We’re grateful for partners who show up with great food and even better service.

To our city crews and officers—thank you for everything you do for us and for helping make the Peanut Festival a success for our whole community.

💛 A Heartfelt Thank You to City of Sylvester, Georgia Government💛

Our Georgia Peanut Festival Committee and the Sylvester-Worth County Chamber of Commerce would like to extend our deepest gratitude to the City of Sylvester for their incredible generosity and unwavering support.

Your contribution of funding, space, and manpower made this year’s festival possible. From setting up and cleaning up to providing the resources that kept everything running smoothly, your team went above and beyond.

Because of all of you, our community came together in the best way possible. You’ve helped create memories that will be talked about for years to come, and your dedication to seeing Sylvester shine is something we’ll never take for granted.

Thank you, City of Sylvester, for investing in your community and believing in what we can accomplish together. We truly wouldn’t be where we are today without you. 🥜💛

A huge THANK YOU from your Georgia Peanut Festival Committee! 🥜💛

What a month. What a community.

Our very first Pets & Pals FESTIVAL was a hit, and that’s because you showed up, participated, volunteered, and made it something our families will remember.

We were able to bring in an Another Bounce House & hook up with Best Friends, where they set up fun games and offered low-cost vaccines and microchipping that helped so many pets stay healthy and safe. The turnout was incredible, and the smiles said it all.

We also tried something new this year… Trunk-or-Treat. And wow. You blew us away. The creativity, the decorating, the candy—and especially the heart—was next level. Every person who spent their time, money, and energy to give our kids a fun and safe evening deserves the biggest round of applause.

To our volunteers:
You gave up weekends, evenings, and probably a few naps. You handled the heavy lifting, the planning, the clean-up, and everything in between. You do this not for credit, but for community. We see it. We appreciate it. And we could never do this without you.

This wraps up our October events for 2025—and what a finish it was. We’re already working on 2026, because that’s what this community inspires us to do… keep pushing forward.

Stay tuned for even more fun, more family moments, and more Worth County pride.

🥜 Now, as we wave goodbye to 2025… we can’t wait to welcome in 2026. 💛

Thank you, Worth County. We’re grateful for you—every step of the way.
