WOODLEAF — Few things in life are as satisfying as biting into a ripe tomato.

Unity Presbyterian Church captures that sentiment each year at the Woodleaf Tomato Festival, and last Saturday was no exception. From the parade down Woodleaf Barber Road to the tomato-themed events littered across the event’s lineup schedule, there is something for attendees of all ages.

The parade might be the shortest route in Rowan County, but festival-goers line the street and cheer on the tractors, fire trucks and occasional equines that pass in front of the church’s parking lot, where vendors and local farmers purvey their wares.
