Mt Laurel’s annual Harvest Festival features a variety of vendors and children’s activities.
Signs of fall will line the streets of Mt Laurel for the town’s 12th annual Mt Laurel Harvest Festival this month.
“Everybody is so relaxed and happy to welcome the season,” said Kim McFall, the event organizer and office manager/sales associate for Mt Laurel. “The town and Double Oak Mountain’s fall colors are like something out of a picture.”
The free event, which is scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 12 from 10 a.m.-3 p.m., will feature more than 200 different vendors, a farmer’s market, craft fair and more. It draws more than 3,000 people for the festivities each year.
“I love to walk around and see the variety of things you can shop for,” McFall said. “We welcome any and all vendors, so we will have travel agencies and people giving tips on air conditioning alongside people selling handmade wreaths and food and craft vendors.”
Children can enjoy activities including inflatables, hayrides, a petting zoo and face painting. There will also be special appearances by Cinderella, Harry Potter, Star Wars characters and the GhostBusters.
The town’s businesses and six restaurants will also be open during the festival.
