The farm is a buzz this week with all of our preparations for Oct 13th Harvest Festival. We couldn’t be more excited to host our second annual Fall Harvest Festival. As it’s still a new tradition, we are happy to watch it grow and evolve.
We’re gearing up to offer all of our old favorites activities. Becky is getting ready for her pie making demonstra- tion and the pumpkin patch is under- way. Lael and Jen are making sure we get all our materials and staff in place. And of course the real star of the show, our Pink Lady apples are just waiting to be picked. The trees are loaded!
And we’ll have the pleasure of welcoming back our friends from the Mt. Diablo String Band! If you haven’t heard them yet, you’re in for a treat. They are a good ol’ fashion Old Time string band
complete with banjo, fiddle, guitar, man- dolin and stand up bass. At the wrap up of our Summer Pick & Jam event this year, Corbin, one of the band members, even taught a few folks some square dancing moves. Ask them nicely and you just might have the privilege yourself.
This year, Molly, our resident crafter, is working on sprucing up the event. Molly and the lovely ladies from our pack- ing shed made hand tied fabric garlands to add festivity to the packing shed. Make sure and look for Molly at the kid’s craft station to let her know what you think.
We hope to see you this Sunday, October 13th for the Fall Harvest Festival.
