Community Saves Soybean Festival

The beloved Tennessee Soybean Festival is canceled for 2026—but don’t worry, the community’s rallying back with Martin’s Grassroots Soybean Festival, a smaller, locally-driven revival happening September 10–12 at Virginia Weldon Park. Spearheaded by John and Courtney Sellers of Martin’s Coffee and Bakery, this new event celebrates local talent, food, music, and businesses—with all profits after expenses going to fund new life-saving equipment for local firefighters. Just 90 days to pull it off, but the town’s already stepping up. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
