The free event will feature scenic wagon rides through the Redbrook community to the adjacent cranberry bogs, for a demonstration of the water harvest and the loading of the cranberries into trucks for delivery to Ocean Spray. Guests will also learn about dry harvesting and the difference between the two methods while taking with growers.
HarvestFest was founded as a way to introduce neighbors to the cranberry harvest in a fun and educational setting.
The Old Colony YMCA will offer a variety of children's activities including a fall craft table, lawn games, their famous ball pit, healthy eating demonstrations, and membership specials for the South Plymouth Old Colony YMCA at Redbrook.
Visitors can paddle a rental kayak, offered by Nemasket Kayak, on the nearby reservoir to view the cranberry harvest, and the new homes at Redbrook will be open for tours.
Sample cranberry products at the Ocean Spray booth, take a guided nature walk with MassAudubon, shop a variety of vendors, enjoy complimentary face painting by Art on the Spot, watch the jugglers, listen to music, and much more.
The event is sponsored by the A.D. Makepeace Company, the world’s largest cranberry grower.
