The Grist Mill and Gardens gave summer a festive send-off with their annual Heritage Fall Fair over the weekend.

91裸聊视频淚t91裸聊视频檚 a wonderful way to close out the main part of our season,91裸聊视频� said Chris Mathieson, the Grist Mill91裸聊视频檚 general manager. 91裸聊视频淣ow we switch to the fall things like school field trips.91裸聊视频�

The Grist Mill had another year of great attendance spread over two days instead of just one like in 2022.

While there was only one 91裸聊视频� quite Barbie-tastic 91裸聊视频� zucchini racer on Saturday, there were plenty of families and kids who came out on Sunday to take part in the apple race.

91裸聊视频淭here were probably 50 apples in the water,91裸聊视频� said Mathieson 91裸聊视频淎s the guy who jumps in the water to pull them out, I will tell you the water was exceptionally cold.91裸聊视频�

The tradition of the apple race is bearing fruit in another way, beyond the families who show up each year, with a tree on the creek that sprouted from the seeds of apples that went down the water.

91裸聊视频淲e91裸聊视频檙e carefully watching that apple tree because it91裸聊视频檚 pretty tasty and could be a new variety,91裸聊视频� said Mathieson. 91裸聊视频淢aybe in five years at a future fair we91裸聊视频檒l be introducing the world to a new apple.91裸聊视频�

The apple pies were a also hit, with five entries that all were delicious and hard to decide between for the title of best of the fair.

The silent auction for the Grist Mill91裸聊视频檚 volunteer foundation raised about $1,500, which will go back into community programs and events.

The membership drive for the foundation was also a big success, picking up another dozen or so members to bring their total count over 100.

Mathieson also thanked the many sponsors, the most the fair has had, for their support. That support allowed the Gardens to do things like bring in the popular axe-throwing trailer, the Gotta Goat farm, and the other attractions to the fair.
