Attendees of the annual Harvest Festival, held Nov. 21 and Nov. 22 at Mixon Fruit Farms, enjoyed a range of outdoor activities to celebrate the fall season.
Children jumped on trampolines, took photos with Santa Claus, enjoyed a ride through the farm's groves and snacked on a range of foods, such as pizza, strawberry shortcakes and elephant ears.
The Kid's Zone also offered a ring toss, Stockin' Fruit and Hungry Mixon Man games.
The two-day event also featured live music throughout the weekend, until rain showers forced attendees to seek cover inside Mixon's shop.
