We encourage you to bring your own plates, bowls, forks, spoons, cloth napkins… even cups for cider, in order to minimize the un-recyclable waste of paper plates and plastic utensils and such going into the landfill. Thanks! OH, and don’t forget a serving utensil for your pot-luck item!

What to bring:
<> Above-mentioned plates, utensils, cups etc for pot-luck
<> A dish of some sort to share in the pot-luck (don’t forget to bring a serving utensil! Please also bring a card or note with ingredients if not obvious, so people with food allergies will know what they can and cannot eat)
<> A blanket to spread on the ground to picnic on
<> Hats, jackets, sweaters, etc – it gets cool in the evening!
<> A flashlight, if you plan on staying until dark

In year’s past we had a Pie Contest which will NOT take place this year, however, I (Farmer Tom) for one will make a pie and we will have a separate specially-decorated table just for our creative pie baking enthusiasts.

Notice:
This year we need a few volunteers to help with the Harvest Fest. Please call me (831-760-0436) or e-mail thomas@baymoon.com if you can lend a hand, even if it’s only for a short time, whether it’s helping with setting up, apple pressing, apple u-pick, pumpkin picking and carving, baking in the cob oven, music, face painting, etc, YOUR HELP is GREATLY APPRECIATED!
