Fall is on its way in, but there is still time to get out and enjoy the warm air and cool breezes here at Whitcomb Terrace. The leaves will start to turn, and fall events are starting, with pumpkin patches and fall festivals on the way.
One such festival is coming up just 20 minutes from Merrillville and Whitcomb Terrace, and that’s the funky festival that is Harvest Fest at Hruby Ranch down in Crown Point. This two-day festival takes place September 24 – 26 with two full nights of music and arts.
There will be a ton of local food venues, camping, local and national artists and vendors, and more at this music festival for everyone.
The festival kicks off on Friday the 24th and headliners Funkinetics have two sets. There will be a kids section, as well as tons of art for sale, food trucks from local businesses, and much more.
