Clinton Harvest Fest celebrates fall and community spirit

Clinton is gearing up for a full day of fall fun as Harvest Fest returns this Saturday.

The annual event promises to bring the community together in downtown Clinton with entertainment, vendors, and activities for all ages. Visitors can expect a vendor market featuring local goods, food options highlighting the tastes of the season, a classic car show, and live entertainment throughout the day.

Community Improvement Coordinator Angela Smith added that the family-friendly event will also feature children’s activities and games.

"We have something for everyone at Harvest Fest," said Smith. "We have bouncers and pony rides for the younger ones, rock climbing and axe throwing for the older kids, and everyone in between."

"In addition, we have a sensory-friendly zone for anyone who needs to take a little break during the event," Smith shared. "We have a quiet space that has a private room, handicapped washroom, and there are quiet games to play and treats to be found in the sand pile."

Families are encouraged to come out and enjoy the day, with organizers highlighting that the festival is designed to celebrate both the harvest season and community spirit.
