children's activities

Harvestfest is an event with a strong community and family focus. We have designed several interesting events for the kids to participate in, each of which contributes vital elements to the the main ritual on Saturday night. We will be building a large Corn King out of hay, sticks, and chicken wire, and we will be providing pumpkins for the kids (and helpers) to carve. We also have several other little plans in store as well.

It is important to note that Harvestfest does not provide "daycare". All parents are responsible for their children's behavior, whereabouts, and safety at all times. Please insure that you have read the "Festival Rules" section of this site for complete details on what is expected of parents and guardians.
