Sunday, Oct. 4 at 1 p.m. — BRANDON — Always held the Sunday before Columbus Day weekend, HarvestFest happens in Brandon on Oct. 4, from 1 to 4 p.m.
At HarvestFest, the Brandon Chamber of Commerce supplies all materials, accessories, and instruction on how to make your very own “harvest person.” This event is a great way for people to be creative and let imaginations run wild. Event-goers choose clothes, a hat, shoes, and embellishments to personalize their own “person.” Volunteers help with the finishing touches. The first harvest person per family is free of charge. After that, they are $5 each.
Besides harvest people-making, participants can enjoy hayrides and pumpkins by the Harvest Program, the Lion’s Club will be grilling, Brandon Republicans will be selling their famous apple pies, and St. Mary’s Church will offer coffee, cider and donuts.
Sponsored by the Brandon Area Chamber of Commerce, this event is held in Central Park, Brandon. Rain location will be the Methodist Church.
For more info contact the Chamber at 802-247-6401.
