Can't make it out of the city this autumn to experience one of our Top Three Town Festivals For Fall Foodies? Don't worry, we went to one for you this weekend, after trekking from our usual roost in New York City to Northwest Ohio for the Grand Rapids Apple Butter Fest.
The freshly-churned apple butter, piping hot apple dumplings, bean soup and buffalo burgers aside, fall festivals such as this are truly the epicenters of the culture surrounding autumn. We can go crunch the leaves in Central Park whenever, but being surrounded by crafters who do wrought-iron cornstalks and stalls selling candles scented like pumpkin vanilla is a concentrated fall experience. But it's not too late to head to one of these festivals on your own!
These are some sort of fantasy fries.
In the beginning of the November, the 6-8 in fact, there are two more large fall foodies festivals taking place: The Louisiana Pecan Festival and Massachusetts' Cedar Days. More information on these can be found in our original story, and we're sure there are other small festivals happening a short drive or train trip away from you as the season gets darker and colder.
Have fun, drink plenty of cider, and just make sure that you're not boarding a 5-hour bus trip after all that apple product ingestion, if you catch our drift.
