Top 5 Philadelphia Fall Festivities

Everyone in the Philadelphia Real Estate community knows that Fall might very well be the best season in the City of Brotherly Love.  In addition to enjoying the great weather and watching our beloved sports teams there’s actually quite a lot to do outdoors in and around Philadelphia in the Fall.  Here’s our list of the Top 5 Philadelphia Fall Festivities:

Linvilla Orchards

“Linvilla Orchards is a 300-acre farm dedicated to agriculture, entertainment and education. We raise our own fresh fruits and vegetables that you can pick yourself or purchase in our Farm Market. Our bakery features our world-famous pies. Visit Pumpkinland, take a hayride thru our fields and orchards, catch a big fish in Orchard Lake, cut your own Christmas Tree or play in our Playland Playground. Our festivals focus on our most popular crops and feature costumed characters, games, contests and music. Linvilla Orchards is The Family Farm for Family Fun.” (http://www.linvilla.com/)

Reading Terminal Market Harvest Festival

“Harvest Festival – Saturday, October 13th, 10am to 4pm.  Autumn is here and that means it is harvest time at Reading Terminal Market. This October, the Market celebrates the foods of the Pennsylvania harvest with loads of fresh, local produce, cheeses and wines, hay rides and games. Filbert Street will be transformed into an urban farm and closed to vehicle traffic. Families are invited to climb on an authentic farm tractor for a hay ride around the Market, enjoy hot apple cider and award-winning Pennsylvania wines. There will be locally grown autumn harvest fruits and vegetables, a sidewalk barbeque of bratwurst, knockwurst and other specialty sausage sandwiches and for those with a sweet tooth, there will be chocolate, caramel and candy dipped apples.
