Fall’s Bountiful Harvest
As I pass the local farms from the middle of August right up to Thanksgiving, I am always amazed by the area’s great harvest. Stopping at any roadside stand or a Farmer’s Market, will impress you with the variety and freshness of local foods like maple syrup, natural beef as well as a full range of organic items. The home baked treats, jams and jellies will please every palate. The smell and feel of farm fresh produce is really appetizing. Buying fresh honey, when you can see the beehives is a treat not everyone has experienced. Then, there are the very special farmers celebrations, those incomparable celebrations of a good harvest, The Fall Fair. Please consider these events; Warkworth Fall Fair www.warkworthfair.com, the Port Hope Fair www.porthopefair.com, Brighton Applefest, www.applefest.reach.net and for more information www.northumberlandtourism.com. Our countryside provides a wonderful harvest for everyone. Come join us and celebrate”Fall’s Bountiful Harvest”. Looking forward to seeing you!
