That’s how it is here in PA, there are so many experiences and activities just waiting to be discovered. Harvest festivals, county fairs, fall foliage and the great outdoors - that’s Fall in Pennsylvania! Inside the pages of this issue you’ll find more activities than you could possibly do this fall, and this is just a sampling of the events going on this season. I hope you will pick out a few to enjoy with family and friends. You’ll find more events, at whereandwhen.com, that you can add to your calendar, share with friends or put on your personal Where & When Bucket List.

TH annual

harvest fair nm

Alexander Schaeffer Farm

love festivals of all kinds, but I tend to gravitate to the smaller, more obscure events. The Fall Harvest Fair at historic Alexander Schaeffer Farm in Schaefferstown is one those festivals that I try to attend as often as possible. Like many of the visitors, learning about folk cultures attracts me to festivals like these and it gives me the opportunity to connect with my Pennsylvania German heritage. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m one generation away from a lifestyle that was nearly extinct in secular society. Once considered old-fashioned, a more sustain-

able lifestyle is enjoying a bit of a renaissance due to those interested in homegrown and handmade products. During the event, the mid18th-century Alexander Schaeffer House is open for tours. The house has been on the National Register of Historic Places since 1972 and was designated a National Historic Landmark in 2011. The entire 85acre farm is abuzz with activity including reaping, threshing and baling using antique equipment and a couple of very hearty Belgian draft horses. Maceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Sawmill and the black-

smith are also in action to demonstrate the workings of an early Pennsylvania German farm. Other popular attractions at the Harvest Festival include the operating cider press, apple butter making and open-hearth cooking, as well as candle and soap making. Horse-drawn wagon rides are available to give visitors a unique perspective of the property. In addition to vegetables and grains, many farms had small orchards. Apples were

harvested for canning, cider and vinegar making and familiar favorites like pie and apple dumplings. My mother’s favorite apple dish, schnitz

and pies are available to purchase. Visitors can through artisan booths showcasing traditional Pennsylvania German folk art such as redware pottery, scherenschnitte (German art of paper cutting), hex sign painting, broom making and basket weaving. You wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t find the typical midway rides and games that have become the standard at most fairs. Children can participate in colonial games such as a hoop rolling contest, sack races and much more. Farm animals such as goats, pigs and chickens are always a hit with youngsters at the event.

The Alexander Schaeffer Farm is preserved and managed by Historic Schaefferstown Inc., which provides educational programs and events throughout the year. In addition to the farm, the nonprofit curates two other properties in Schaefferstown that tell the story of the Pennsylvania German and Swiss, who flourished in the area - the Thomas R. Brendle Museum and the Gemberling-Rex House. From the moment you step out of your car, you will feel as though you have stepped back in time. What a refreshing change from the electronic device-driven world we live in.

Harvest Season in Lake Erie Wine Country

Sunsets Wine Relaxation Those are three experiences to have when exploring the Lake Erie Wine County.

Sunset over Presque Isle Bay from Dobbins Landing, Erie

Story by Cara Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Donnell

n e s d y q a o w

The Lake Erie region is home to the nation’s largest grape-growing territory east of the Rockies, and it’s not hard to see why as you traverse the area. The drive along Lake Erie’s shores transports you to a bygone era, with friendly people, quaint Victorian towns, beautiful views, and a variety of wineries, each with its own unique blends and personality. You won’t find hordes of party buses converg-

ing all at once or long lines to taste preselected wines. Here, it’s a much more personalized experience; you might even find the winemaker him/herself standing behind the tasting room counter, eager to find the perfect blend that’s right for each individual customer. Just follow the green grape Lake Erie Wine Country signs to discover your favorite stops along the way.

When traveling Photo by Cara O’Donnell north from downtown Erie along Route 5 into wine country, one of the first stops is Penn Shore Winery and Vineyards, the oldest in Pennsylvania (its license number is 2). The winery, which opened its doors in 1970, is also known as the home of Pennsylvania’s oldest champagne – and Penn Shore is Pennsylvania’s oldest winery and also produces one of the state’s only true Champagnes. one of the few outside the Champagne region in France alCountry and beyond since the early ’70s. lowed to use the name.
