The Legacy
The Sugar Grove Corn Boil started from a fundraising event held by the local young adults club to raise funds for the Village’s first street lamp. Over it’s 59 years, the event has blossomed into the beloved event you see today. It has grown in both size and significance, thanks to the tireless efforts of volunteers, local
businesses, and organizations.

What Makes the Sugar Grove Corn Boil Special?
It is not just another festival—it's a celebration of community, a gathering of friends and family from all generations to enjoy food, fun, and fellowship. Originally, the corn was boiled using a steam engine—a
tradition that has since evolved. Today, 10,000+ ears of corn are served! We are driven to ensure that our festival event remains FREE for everyone to attend! We are able to achieve this thanks to the incredible
generosity of our sponsors and the unwavering dedication of our volunteers - it truly takes a village!
