Every year on the second weekend of September my little community hosts a Fall Festival. It is a weekend of fellowship usually in between wheat, corn and soybean harvests. A chance for visiting, showing off your garden success, sharing your summer adventures and eating a lot of good pie made by the church ladies.
I thought it would be fun to share a fall festival in a box with our farmgirls.
For this swap you can pack up anything that you think would be perfect for a fall festival. Some ideas might be a scarecrow (we actually have scarecrow building contests.) Something created that has fall leaves, pumpkins, gourds, sunflowers etc. in it. A jar of jam you have canned this summer from your garden bounty, a bag of herbs you have dried from your herb bed…. The possibilities are endless.
Sign-ups will go until August 15th. Mail out will be September 6th.
A little rain can straighten a flower stem. A little love can change a life.

Hi Julie, I'm in. Already have several ideas and a jar of peach jam I made last month. From a peach tree in our daughters front yard. Thank you for hosting this swap.

It will be fun ladies, just like our real one.
Does your community have a fall festival? What activities do you have? One the favorites is the kiddy tractor pull held on Main Street right after the parade. Everyone wins a wooden token to the local ice cream shop and the winners of each age group win a very coveted trophy.
A little rain can straighten a flower stem. A little love can change a life.
