From: Case Barlow Farm's Annual Harvest FestivalCase-Barlow Farm’s Annual Fall Harvest Fest is returning for the 26th year with exciting new items and favorites from the past. Rain or shine, the event offers activities for all ages along with demonstrations, and, of course, food from noon to 5 p.m.
???You will find happiness around every corner. The Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad will transform the barn into a model railroad station with working trains and hands-on activities. Summit Metro Park will have a nature table with displays on maple sugaring as both the Case’s and Barlow's did so many years ago. Did you know that a Hudson inventor created the evaporator that revolutionized the system of making maple syrup? Children will enjoy the chance to meet small farm animals, including chickens, little calves, goats, and pigs, courtesy of JZ’s Wild Bunch 4-H Club. Pure Passions Farm will bring their alpacas for everyone to pet and enjoy. All attendees are sure to enjoy a hay wagon ride for the entire family! Colorful plastic ducks races, Ride’em and Rope’em, Music walk, Hay Hunt for Toddlers, and so much more awaits your family. Learn how to dip a candle, wash clothes the old-fashioned way, churn butter, shell and marsh corn, plus make crafts to take home to friends and families.
In addition the day will include: stone mason John Burnell, who will be discussing his restoration work on the farm house; the 19th Ohio Light Artillery displaying a Civil War encampment, arborist Curt VanBlarcum; blacksmith Shawn Petries, Windsor chair maker, Richard Grell; Joe Leonard, wood carver who created the wood carousel horses for Disney Paris, and Michael Cohill with his marble railroad. The sounds of the Eddy Street Geezer’s will entertain throughout the day.
