Harvest Fair...FREE Family Fun!

Since Autumn began yesterday, I thought Harvest Fair at the Wisconsin State Fairgrounds would be the perfect family fun activity to spotlight... Not to mention the fact that it opens TODAY!

While I love the warm months of Summer and the fresh days
of Spring, there is just something about the Fall activities, smells, eats, and cool, but not too cool, weather that I love. It just kinda' makes me feel all warm & fuzzy inside and out. As a matter of fact, I'm considering petitioning Mother Nature for a longer Fall and MUCH shorter Winter! So far, she has failed to return my calls.

Harvest Fair has alot to offer
...starting with the FREE admission! Free is for me folks. Too bad all the eats and activities aren't free as well. Activities include, but are not limited to: caramel apples, cookie decorating, hay rides, scarecrow making, Elegant Farmer apple pie (baked in a bag), pumpkin bowling, camel & pony rides, inflatable attractions for the kids, a kiddie train, Farmer's Market, Harvest Bazaar, petting zoo, pumpkin patch, and more....whew!

There
are some notable performers/bands playing this year, including: Jack Ingram, Cherry Pie, The Toys, and Skid Row to name a few. Nothing like going back in time with a great hair band or two!

If you're
ready for an early scare, Haunt Fest is having a "soft opening" during Harvest Fair on 9/24 & 9/25 from 7pm-11pm at a discounted rate of $12.

Put
on your favorite fall sweater and head down to Harvest Fair this weekend for some warm & fuzzy fall fun! If you do go, come on back and post your favorite activities in the comment section...I'd love to hear all about it!

  1. Wish I could go. I tried to petition my husband, but he declined. And then I planned other stuff to do. Hoping to go next year!!!
