LEXINGTON, Mass. (WBZ NewsRadio) — Wilson Farm in Lexington celebrates 140th harvest anniversary with a special community event, Harvest Fest.
Inspired by traditional county fair, Harvest Fest brought out a ferris wheel on to the Wilson Farm field for the first time ever. In addition, the event also offers hayrides, petting zoos and other hands on activities.
Food stations throughout the event includes seasonal items such as their signature apple cider donuts, caramel apples, and even a 140th anniversary cake.
Wilson Farm was started in 1884 and has been a family-run business ever since. Today, it is operated by fourth and fifth generation family members of the Wilson family.
“We’re hoping to bring people back in time with a country fair atmosphere that will inspire happy memories of the good times they’ve had while visiting Wilson’s Farm,” Lauren Wilson, a fifth generation family member, said in a statement.
Wilson Farm’s Harvest Fest takes place on Nov. 9 – 10 from 11 a.m. until 4 p.m.
