Harvest Festival
Saturday, October 3, 2015, 1:00-4:00pm
 Park in the Splash Park lot on Merrill Plaisance |
Once farmland and home to a multitude of animals and orchards, the celebration of the Harvest at Detroit’s Palmer Park was honored in the days of Senator and Mrs. Palmer in the late 1800s, when Palmer Park was known as Log Cabin Farm.
People for Palmer Park has revived this tradition with its annual Harvest Festival. Free family fun including hayrides through the historic woods; apple tasting and applesauce-making demos; petting zoo and pony rides; tours through Palmer Park’s new urban garden and pumpkin patch; arts and crafts and games for children; music-making; and much more. This is a fun opportunity for all ages to learn about how our food is grown, the lives of farm animals, and nature in the park. |
