It’s that time of year when local farms like this one in Mission Hills invite the community to enjoy family friendly entertainment, while shopping for fresh farm grown fruits and vegetables.
Forneris Farms, located on Rinaldi St. in Mission Hills, is open year-round offering a variety of fresh fruits and veggies to the community.
For the month of October, the farm is dressed up to accommodate the halloween spirit.
Residents can pick out their own pumpkins for as low as 15 dollars in the pumpkin patch.
Smaller pumpkins are available for just 4 dollars under the tent in the marketplace.
And for just 15 dollars, a wrist band can be purchased for addition fun.
Including walking through the corn maze,
Riding this train around the edge of the maze.
And enjoying the beauty of the farm.
There was also a petting zoo, where children could see and touch chickens, ducks, and and other farm animals.
As well as the opportunity of hand feeding this goat.
And at the end of the fun, the wrist band could be turned in with a guess as to how much this giant lizard weighs.
The Festival concludes this weekend, on November 1 with more family friendly fun from 10-6. Don’t miss it or visit a local farm in your area. It’s the true definition of a “harvest” festival.
