It's Almost That Time of the Year Again!!!!

73rd Annual Michigan Bean Festival 

Labor Day Weekend Fairgrove, MI , August 30th - September 2nd, 2019

Check back often for updated information  

Hello, my name is Victoria Gentner and it has been a great honor to serve as your 70th Michigan Bean Queen. Being able to represent Michigan’s dry bean industry and the town of Fairgrove has been unforgettable. Together, my family and I have grown dry beans in the past, and I will always have great respect for the industry and it’s growers. Throughout my reign, I have had opportunities to promote Michigan’s dry bean industry, not only in Michigan, but to individuals all around the country. These opportunities and events would have never been made possible without the community and volunteers of Fairgrove, the Bean Festival, Michigan Bean Commission, my runner-up Holly and her family, my family and the numerous Michigan dry bean growers. The memories made will be everlasting, and I will miss serving and promoting Michigan’s dry bean industry. Thank you for allowing me to represent and serve Michigan’s dry bean industry as your 70th Michigan Bean Queen. Eat more beans!
