Celebrate fall at the 30th Annual Apple Butter Festival
Glenn Wilson will be making his famous apple butter the old-fashioned way, slow simmered in a 130+ year old copper pot over an open fire.
Take a turn stirring with the long-handled paddle and take home a jar of freshly made, 100% natural apple butter.
Find unique, handcrafted items by over 40 local artisans and crafts people. Delicious local food and drink and music all day.
