Forget about fiddleheads, peepers, or maple sugaring. Blackflies are the real harbinger of spring in central Vermont. And they'll soon be here!

Come celebrate the bug we love to hate at the 15th annual Adamant Blackfly Festival on Saturday, June 3, beside the Adamant Co-op on the beautiful Adamant Music School green.

It's more fun than thought humanly possible: a nature walk, Blackfly Fashion Show, parade, blood and bug themed Pie Contest, writers' slam, and live music, great food, and zany family fun all day long!

All activities are free and open to all ages. Rain or shine.
