Our inaugural Harvest Festival took place on October 5, 2024, at Frank's Organic Farm on Woodbine Ave in Newmarket, ON.
The weather was perfect with clear blue skies, bright sun, and crisp fall air - an ideal setting to celebrate the Harvest season and the conclusion of Organic Month.
Families from across York Region gathered at the farm for a day filled with fall-themed activities. Highlights included harvesting organic potatoes with farmer Julian, hay rides with the farm's friendly cows, colourful bouncy castles, an obstacle course, games, farm scavenger hunt and a serene meditation tent offering calming scents of cedar and sage to ground the sense and bring some calm to a busy day.
The event featured live music from a local musician, a beautifully curated fall marketplace by Frank's Organic Garden offering organic bites and produce, as well as vendors like Happy Body Meal Prep (formerly Cafe Alexandra) and Fifi's Apothecary serving delicious snacks.
As the festival came to a close, attendees expressed their sadness to see the day end, wishing it could last a few more hours. Don't worry, we've noted this for next year :)
We were thrilled to see familiar faces from the community and to welcome new ones, and look forward to seeing everyone at our next event. Thank you for your continued support!
