Contributed

Always a sign of shifting seasons, Goodell Gardens and Homestead is getting ready to host their Homegrown Harvest Festival, a free event that celebrates the culmination of the summer season featuring live music, food, vendors, and activities.

SUNDAY, SEPT. 21

Support local vendors and celebrate the start of fall with Goodell Gardens & Homestead's 19th annual Homegrown Harvest Festival, a day packed with fun for the whole family.

Taking place on the organization's sprawling Edinboro grounds, the festival will feature more than 50 local vendors, food trucks, and farmers, with tons of activities slated for the day. Due to the popularity of the event, times have been extended for the first time this year to allow for more activities and attendance.

Admission to the event is free, and both a 50/50 raffle as well as a large raffle auction will be held. There will be a Kid's Lawn and live music throughout the day, including performances from Touch of Grey and Matthew Crays for all to enjoy. Face painting, a kids yoga class, visits with the Tree Family Party Piggies, and other programs will go on throughout the day.

"This event originally started as a mum festival but has slowly grown into an absolutely beautiful autumn event," said Goodell's events organizer Brit Skrzypczak. "It helps support our mission of creating beautiful gardens and natural spaces for people to enjoy."
