The Eliot Wild Blueberry Festival is a free community celebration on the grounds of the First Congregational Church of Eliot, marking Maine's wild blueberry season. The day features a blueberry pancake breakfast and a sausage-sub lunch, live music and a drum circle, craft and baked-goods vendors, an "upscale resale" tent, and plenty of blueberry pies. A kids' zone offers games, face painting, and a bounce house, with blue cotton candy, blueberry slushies, and sundaes. (2026 date estimated from the festival's recurring early-September Saturday pattern — verify with organizer.)
