Experience the Magic of Autumn at Mildale Fall Farm Fest
As the crisp fall air settles over Kansas City, families are invited to gather and celebrate the season at the Mildale Fall Farm Fest on October 25th. This event, hosted by the Johnson County Parks and Recreation District, is a delightful opportunity for residents to enjoy a day filled with fun activities, all absolutely FREE. From 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., families can explore the enchanting 22-acre property, usually reserved for special occasions like weddings and corporate retreats.
A Packed Day of Fall Fun Awaits!
The festival promises a variety of engaging activities suited for all ages. Attendees can select their perfect pumpkin from the pumpkin patch, indulge in crafts, and of course, savor warm cider while basking in the cozy vibes. Children will enjoy roasting marshmallows around a fire, and everyone can gather for charming storytelling sessions. The event also features live music from DJ Kirby and the Konza Swamp Band, contributing to a festive atmosphere.
Supporting Local Kansas City Businesses
While enjoying the day’s activities, don’t miss out on local flavors. Chris Cakes will be serving delicious pancakes and sausage for only $5 a plate (available until noon), and Chick-fil-A sandwiches along with other treats will be available for purchase. This is a great opportunity to support local vendors who enhance the community's vibrant market scene.
Hands-On Activities and Experiences
One of the event highlights includes catch-and-release fishing with Cops & Bobbers, where visitors can learn from experienced instructors. Make sure to bring a valid Kansas fishing license if you’re aged 16 and older. And don’t forget to check out the Heritage Tractor equipment on display, adding a unique educational element to your day.
Petting Zoo and More!
The petting zoo is another crowd-pleaser, where families can interact with friendly animals, though feeding them may come with a small fee (cash-only). Activities operate on a first-come, first-served basis until supplies last, so plan to arrive early to secure your spot!
