TILLYfest celebrates the life and times of Yolo County’s Holstein Queen and internationally renowned milk production champion Tilly Alcartra (1908-1924). In her day, her reputation was unsurpassed and she set world records from 1914 to 1920.
The FREE festival will feature live Bluegrass at Heritage Plaza, Blue Note Brewing, Morgan’s On Main and Mojo’s Lounge, AND live Country Western at The Burger Saloon.
There will be historical exhibits, food, beverages, vendors, farmers market, games and other activities for the whole family presented by county 4-H Clubs.
The fundraiser will help establish a local history museum in the historic downtown Woodland! The venue will be “A toast to Yolo’s pride” and will showcase the amazing heritage of our great county! The future “must see” destination landmark will be sustained by the women and men of Woodland Parlor 30, Native Sons of the Golden West, (the only NSGW chapter in Yolo County). Please help us achieve our goal!
