Step back in time at Harvest Days

Harvest Days at Garfield Farm Museum provides a relaxing way to look at the way farm life was 160 years ago.

The event is from 11:30 am to 4 p.m. Sunday at the museum, 5 miles west of Geneva of Route 38 on Garfield Road.

Reid Miller, a storyteller, will perform throughout the day.

A farmers market of baked goods and fall produce offers a taste of this elusive era to take home. Inglenook Pantry of Geneva will offer refreshments and food.

Begun in 1982, Harvest Days, originally known as the Fall Festival, is the museum's oldest fundraising event and was the first to hint of the future of the farm portraying activities of the 1840s.

Tours of the 1846 brick tavern will be ongoing throughout the day. There is a $6 donation for adults, $3 for children 12 years old and under. Organized youth groups are $4 each. For information, call (630) 584-8485 or e-mail info@garfieldfarm.org.
