Now is the time to make plans for fall festivals and activities in Missouri. My husband and I like to plan a variety of weekend trips to attend Missouri’s apple butter festivals, craft shows music and farmers markets during the fall season.
Many events are offered in small towns and large cities during the fall season in Missouri.
Missouri has many wide-open spaces, parks, and woods with
maple, oaks and hickory trees that are beautiful during the fall season. The leaves normally turn in
October starting in north Missouri, then to the west before the leaves turn in
the south and the east.
We always go to Piece City for their fall festival on September 21st. We enjoy the hometown activities that this city has to offer. This event is held in a park like setting where you can walk around. There are craft booths, farmers market, music, games for the kids, food and fun. View the Facebook page for more information.
Our friends tell us that the apple butter festival is one we must attend. So, we have marked our calendar with the two-day event date (October 26th and 27th). and time (10 to 5) The Apple Butter Festival in Kimmswick Missouri is a very large celebration as it has drawn over 100,000 visitors.
The festival is in a small
town with historic buildings and tree lined streets. The festival will feature a variety of
booths that offer food, drinks, and crafts. There will also be live entertainment
and fun activities for kids. Such as petting zoo, pony rides, face painters and
more.
If you like apple butter know that you will find no better
than what is made at Kimmswick. The
historical society peels and cuts and cooks the apples over a wood fire on
Saturday and Sunday at dawn. Yes, they freshly prepare the apple butter to be
sold at the festival.
