Harvest Fest 2026

Harvest Fest 2026 is coming to The Farm at Awbury on Sunday, October 18, from 11 AM to 4 PM. It's a full-day autumn fair in Northwest Philadelphia, and it's free to attend.

The day is built around the things you'd expect from a harvest festival. There will be local artisans selling their work, horse-drawn wagon rides, and horseback riding. Apples and pumpkins are a big part of it, and you'll find local food and local beers to keep you going. There are goats on site, too, and live music playing throughout the day.

The festival takes place at The Farm at Awbury, which is part of the Awbury Arboretum at 6336 Ardleigh Street in Germantown. The Arboretum is a nature sanctuary that was once the home of a prominent Quaker family; it's been free and open to the public for more than a century, and its grounds stay open every day from dawn to dusk. Along with the farm, the site includes planned gardens, historic buildings, and AdventureWoods. The Awbury Arboretum Association runs the place with a mission to steward the relationship between nature, history, and community.

So, if you're looking for a way to spend a Sunday morning and afternoon in the city, this is a good one. It's free, it's family-friendly, and it's right in the neighborhood. Harvest Fest 2026 runs from 11 AM to 4 PM on Sunday, October 18, at The Farm at Awbury.
