The Best Fall Festival in Every State
"A community festival that began as a pumpkin-selling event for farmers and has evolved into a 40,000‑person weekend featuring largest-pumpkin competitions, pumpkin-themed baking contests, parades, pageants, living history demonstrations, chainsaw carving, and traditional fall crafts like apple butter churning." - Emily Cappiello
