Celebrating An Apple Harvest

MONROE — The United Methodist Church of Monroe, 515 Cutler’s Farm Road, will be hosting an Apple Harvest Festival on Saturday, October 20, from 10 am to 4 pm.

A box lunch will be available for $5 starting at 11 am.

Visitors will be able to shop for treasures at the tag sale area. Booths will include attic treasures, children’s items, handmade items (quilts, wall hangings, stuffed animals), and seasonal decorations including mums and pumpkins.

Children’s games and events, set up in The Youth Corner, will feature photos, activities and a fun area staffed by church member nail and make-up artists.

Additional highlights will include Vermont cheese to accompany the apple pies, gift baskets, and “foods to go” – cookie and soup mixes, cappuccino mix, and peanut brittle.

The United Methodist Women will also be preparing their famous crumb top apple pies, which need to be pre-ordered and picked up on Friday, October 19. Pies can be ordered already baked, or prepared for baking in the purchaser’s oven. To pre-order pies, call the church at 268-8395. A limited number of baked pies will be available for purchase on Saturday.
