Join us as we celebrate the fall harvest with our 38th Annual Apple Butter Festival. This event gives visitors a chance to reconnect with nature through an exploration of heritage arts, crafts, games, and of course, to help cook authentic apple butter over an open fire. This year’s festival promises to be fun for the whole family and includes live music, great food and will feature “celebrity stirrers” on site to help stir the apple butter.
