FESTIVAL DAY
HELD ANNUALLY ON THE
FIRST SATURDAY IN OCTOBER

​The day begins long before dawn for volunteers, law enforcement and vendors as they arrive in the dark to prepare for the day’s events.  Parking lots are marked and staffed -  streets are closed and marked for vendors and the Fire Dept. and local restaurants begin serving breakfast early.  Thousands of pounds of cranberries and craisins are bagged and ready for the consumers.  Cranberries are also sold in parking lots for your convenience.  The Official Cranberry Booth is located at the top of Main Street Hill on "Cranberry Corner". Please stop by to get your souvenirs and festival clothing along with berries and craisins .  The sounds of music and the  smells of wonderful food grace the air on this crisp autumn morning.  Over 300 Arts and crafts along with food vendors and a great flea & farmers’ markets fill the streets.  

When guests are asked why they enjoy our festival over others they reply, “ …we love the small town -  home town atmosphere and the warm feeling it generates.  We don’t have to walk for miles and miles to see all the vendors.”

Yes, we will hold a private class for you and your friends. Just let us know what you want and we will make sure you have fun.

Soapmaking has always been our #1 requested class. So let’s make a soap that will be great for all you people that love to dig in the dirt. This soap will be two toned and combine the benefits of coffee grounds (yes, coffee grounds) and pumice into a hardworking soap . . . almost as hardworking as you! If you feel like this is a class for you, please do not hesitate to sign up quickly.

All supplies provided. Please wear old clothing! Any questions, please feel free to email www.maplehillfarmwi@yahoo.com and we will respond promptly. Remember, space is limited so sign up fast.
