Ada’s 32nd annual Harvest and Herb Fest, sponsored by the Ada Area Chamber of Commerce, takes place Saturday in downtown Ada. The weather forecast looks for a perfect day for a street festival.

This year’s festival is from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. As in past year’s, it will fill Ada’s Main Street from Highland to College. Main Street will be closed at State Route 235 all the way to State Route 81.

The festival has over 120 vendors already signed up.

Despite that this car supports the Bulldogs and one of the high school's color is purple - this is not an Ada car. The Icon found it on a trip to Iowa. It's on a 2004 Mustang.
