Episode 47: 4-H fun, delicious pretzels, and nature at its best

Summer in Elkhart County is jam-packed with fun in every part of the Heritage Trail!  We hope the People & Places podcast helps you plan out some of your fun summertime adventures and more! On this episode, we learn more about whats in store for the 2022 Elkhart County 4-H Fair, one of Elkhart County's largest events! You'll hear about everything from what days are ride specials, to the concert line up and what food can be found on the Famous Food Row. Then get to know the founder of Ben's Pretzels, home to the world's best Amish-inspired gourmet soft pretzel, which began right here in northern Indiana.  He tells us about how a casual conversation turned into the nation's fastest growing soft pretzel franchise and what his favorite menu item is. And we catch up with the crew at the Elkhart Environmental Center to learn more about their Nature Play Days and the open house they are hosting later in the month.
