There was something for everyone at the Harvest Festival on Main Street Oct. 5.
Children had their faces painted, adults could get a massage or throw an axe at a target 15 feet away, many visitors shopped for drinks, hand-crafted metal jewelry, framed paintings, and treats for their dogs.
Three bands – two on Main Street, one behind the Sun Inn on the tavern patio – added to the enjoyment of young and old. In addition, there was quite a variety of food available, including a soup of butternut squash and pumpkin, autumn doughnuts handcrafted from scratch, some created for vegan guests, and the very popular roasted corn on the cog.
As far as drinks, there were long lines of customers waiting to buy a large variety of beers, the most popular beverage by far, but also local wines. All in all, it was a delightful way to pass a sunny fall day.
