A huge thank you to everyone who came out, played, ate, shopped, visited the farm friends and helped make the afternoon such a fun one for our community.

We’re already collecting ideas for next year, so while you’re scrolling through the last batch, tell us: what was your family’s favorite part of the Fall Festival?

10/12/2026

The Fall Festival photos are officially in, and we had way too many favorites for just one post. 🍂📸

So consider this Part 1 of our Fall Festival photo dump!

From games and prizes to pumpkins, farm friends, food and all the little moments in between, we loved seeing Heritage Landing come out and enjoy the afternoon together.

Tell us what you thought of this years fall festival! Any suggestions for next year? (other than the weather, we can't control that one 😂)
