Floresville Peanut Festival

1144 C Street
Floresville, Texas , 78114
The date was July 29, 1938, when plans for a first festival to celebrate the farming and harvesting of the peanut crop were discussed. The celebration was to be designated as the "Floresville Peanut Pow Wow" to promote the farm commodity and to boast world success of Wilson County's diversified farming program. The hanging of peanut plants across the front of businesses heralded the arrival of the harvesting season.
By August 5, 1938 the name changed to the "Floresville Peanut Festival" and the occasion was considered the first of its kind in Texas. Governor-elect W. Lee O'Daniel was invited to open the festivities and head the fare with his famous Hill Billy Band.
