Abstract:
"In this Wayne County town, residents don yellow and green to celebrate the bloom that put them on the map." When created in 1867, Freemont was originally called Nahunta. In the mid 1950s, the towns garden club initiated a beautification effort with two bushels of daffodil bulbs. Residents were inspired by the work and soon areas all over town were being planted with this early spring favorite. Freemont held its first Daffodil Festival in the late 1980s.
