Our fall festival seemed to be quite a success especially with the children.
The hayrides, animal show, balloon man, bouncy house and making crafts at the Pat Catan's craft table seemed to overwhelm them.
My favorite "activity" was the roasted sweet corn made in a special corn roaster on wheels!
Tomorrow and Sunday is Barberton's annual Mum Fest with over 20,000 plants donated by Aris Horticulture (formerly Yoder Brothers)
The mums combined have at least one million blooms and are planted along the northeast corner of Lake Anna Park in downtown Barberton.
Mums are a main attraction but many other events and activities make it a worthwhile drive.
At the nursery, our mum patch is finally in bloom as it was delayed by the hot weather in August and the first half of September.
Our fall sale is still going on at 50% off many trees, shrubs and perennials so be sure to stop by as more than likely there is something you'll see at a very good buy.
Lets hope for sunny skies for the Mum Fest and then we could use a lot more rain but without tornadoes such as the one that touched down in Wooster at the Ohio Agricultural Research & Development Center in Wooster.
The widespread damage to this world renowned research center and arboretum is a tragic event and must be repaired although it will take years to heal the Secrest Arboretum.
See you at the fest!
Tom
