Fall Family Festival

Saturday, October 26 – 10am-1pm

It’s so much fun watching the kids smile and play and run and laugh! It’s fun watching them pick out the perfect pumpkin from the Pumpkin Patch, pet animals in the petting zoo or ride a horse for the first time. Others love the grist mill and the rhythmic popping sound of that old engine as it slowly grinds corn into meal. Other kids are mesmerized by clanging of a blacksmith’s hammer as he works red-hot metal on his anvil in the Blacksmith Shop and so much more!
