Go nuts for donuts, for a whole weekend in Rockport!

One of the great things about Maine during the summer, is the incredbile amount of food festivals throughout the state. From lobster, to red snapper hot dogs, to whoopie pies, and even Moxie, there is something for everyone! Now you can add yet another yearly tradition to this impressive list.

The 2nd Annual Rockport Donut Festival kicks off summer, on Friday, June 7th & Saturday, June 8th. The timing is perfect, becuase "National Donut Day", is celebrated on the first Friday in June.

Seems like a perfect chance to take a road trip!

There will also be a parade, 5K race, food trucks, a craft beer tent, live music, and of course, lots of donuts!
