Make your own leaf person at Brandon’s HarvestFest

Sunday, Oct. 4 at 1 —BRANDON—This year’s annual Brandon fall family HarvestFest will be held just north of town in Estabrook Park.

Participants can make Harvest People (a.k.a stick figures, scarecrows, leaf people) for  $50 each. (Please note: due to significant lumber and materials price increases they have had to start charging for leaf people after 25 years of being “first one free.” If cash is tight and it’s a burden, just mention it to the cashier and take one home for free!)

There will also be hay rides, food, pumpkins, family fun, kids’ and adult activities. Music. All this starts at 1 p.m.

At HarvestFest, the chamber of commerce supplies all materials, accessories, and instructions. This event is a great way for people to be creative and let imaginations run wild. Event-goers dress their leaf person with clothes, hat, shoes, and embellishments they’ve chosen to personalize their own “person” and then Volunteers help with the finishing touches. They are $5 each.

For more info contact the Chamber at 802-247-6401 or Brandon Recreation Dept. 802-247-3635 ext. 213.
