We were deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Mrs. Betty June Lough. As a long-time and beloved vendor at the Jonquil Festival, she was a cherished part of our community. Her presence will be greatly missed by all of us at Old Washington Historic Park, and our thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends during this difficult time.

A HUGE thank you to all the incredible vendors who joined us for the 2026 Jonquil Festival!
The 2026 Jonquil Festival was a massive success, and we couldn't have done it without the wonderful energy and amazing offerings you brought to Historic Washington.
The weather was perfect, spring was in the air, and we think the local honeybees were just as excited as our visitors were! 🐝 We appreciated all your hard work and great energy during such a bustling, "buzzy" weekend.

Our vendors are the heart of this festival, and we are so grateful for the unique products, delicious food, and wonderful atmosphere you brought to Historic Washington State Park.

If you were a vendor, tag your business below! We can’t wait to see you back among the jonquils next year.
