The 27th Annual Rosendale International Pickle Festival is Sunday, October 20, at the Ulster County Fairgrounds.

This celebration of small cucumbers preserved in salt and/or vinegar began in 1997 as a small gathering of pickle eating friends and has now grown into an event that draws around 5,000 visitors to this part of New York each year.

Victoria Coyne spoke about the history of the Pickle Festival and the Pickle Triathalon event on Radio Chatskill.
