Food Events @ Penn

Reading Terminal Market Harvest Festival
What: Fall is here, and that means it's harvest time! Celebrate the foods of the Pennsylvania harvest at the Market's 11th Annual Harvest Festival. Filbert Street will be closed to vehicle traffic and transformed into an urban farm with hay bales and corn stalks. Kids and adults alike will have the chance to climb on an authentic farm tractor for a hay ride around the Market, take a walk through a pumpkin patch, and enjoy freshly made donuts, locally grown seasonal fruits and vegetables, candy apples, and more. Check out last year's coverage to know what to expect!
