Apple Fest
Celebrate All Things Apple at the Farm!
October 4, 2025
12 - 4 pm
This fall, A Great Day Farm invites you to celebrate the joy of the harvest season at our first-ever Apple Fest on October 4! Sponsored by our friends at Community Resource Bank, this inclusive, family-friendly, and sensory-friendly event will welcome visitors of all ages and abilities to enjoy a day of fall fun: apple tastings, cider pressing, crafts, music, and more. We’re excited that our apples will be extra locally-sourced, coming from our neighbors at Silkey Gardens!

Apples are a source of health, wellbeing, and sustenance—just like our organization. They come in all shapes and sizes and bring joy by simply being who they are. At A Great Day Farm, we see a little bit of our mission in every apple: happy, nourishing, and full of potential. We love apples, and we want to celebrate them with our community! Apple Fest is more than just an event. It’s a way to bring people together, showcase the heart of our mission, and raise essential funds to keep the farm running strong.
