New Hampshire Fall Festival

 

Fall Festival  fall

            New Hampshire in the fall is a glorious time of year. 

           One of the events I always mark on my calendar is the Beaver Brook Association Fall Festival.  This year the  27th annual festival will take place on September 22-23 and September 29-30 from 12:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m.  The New Hampshire Fall Festival is held at the Maple Hill Farm in Hollis New Hampshire.  The Maple Hill Farm is located at 117 Ridge Road, Hollis, NH.

            There is an exceptional nature art and photography exhibit that you won't want to miss!   In addition you can enjoy:

  • Live Music
  • Educational Nature Crafts for Children
  • Dried herbs and flower arrangements
  • Baked goods and Cider
  • Guided hikes on trails and the many beautiful gardens
  • Self-guided pumpkin trail
  • Fresh produce
  • Visit local crafters and artisans               

         This is an event for the entire family.  Visitors from New Hampshire and beyond make it a point to attend.  Last year there were over 1200 attendees!

Short History

     In 1964 the Beaver Brook Association was founded by Hollis P. Nichols and Jeffrey P. Smith, both of Hollis, New Hampshire. They began with 12 acres of land.  Their vision was to foster land stewardship awareness and encourage a sense of appreciation for the natural world. The State of New Hampshire chartered Beaver Brook Association as an educational non-profit organization.

     Today there are 2,000 acres located in Hollis, Brookline, and Milford, New Hampshire.   Hiking, biking, horseback riding, bird watching, and many other activities are available on 35 miles of trails.  The trail have been carefully mapped and designated for activities that will have the least impact on that particular area.

Vendors are Invited - vendor space is free

This is a great marketing opportunity for real estate professionals to pair up with local crafters

           ATTENTION NEW HAMPSHIRE FARMERS AND ARTISANS- vendor space is free.  You need only bring your own tent and tables.  If you are interested in a spot, contact 603-465-7787.  or email edschmidt@beaverbrook.org

Sue -- If you do get to the festival, let me know and maybe we can meet each other in person!  The 22nd is my husband's birthday, but I hope to be there  on one of the days of the festival.

Sally -- I guess it is pretty far from your part of of world.  I appreciate your visiting my blog.

 

Monika -- Fall is magical.  After living in San Francisco for over 28 years, I thought it was going to be a difficult adjustment.  Although, I do miss my dear friends, I do find the changinf of the seasons a wonderful experience.  I love all of the festivals -- It is so much fun!  Sorry to miss you class, it sounds interesting.  However, I had another commitment.

Hi Stephanie -- I think it will be a bit too far to come from Texas.  I will try to update the blog with pictures from the event.  It is expected that we will have visitors from all of the boarder states -- and even beyond.  This is truly a great festival!!

Evening Joan...I haven't heard about this one...we will probably be in Maine when our "North" Country changes so this one may fit the bill!

Hi Joan -- If you can get down this way, let me know.  It would be fun to meet you and your husband -- and perhas Sue too!   If not, we will have to plan another outing.
