Fun on the farm: Learning Tree Farm’s Autumn Fest returns this weekend

Learning Tree Farm’s family-friendly fundraiser Autumn Fest returns Saturday, Sept. 18 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

On 85 acres of farmland, families can enjoy activities, food trucks, educational opportunities and more. In fact, this year’s activities include children’s games and crafts, activities like pumpkin chucking, pony rides, hay rides and live music. There will be plenty of petable animals on hand as well from goats and sheep to chickens and cattle.
