It’s Very Hard for Me to Choose a Favorite Season

It’s Very Hard for Me to Choose a Favorite Season.

Each time one comes around I always say that’s my favorite season. The only one that may not be a top pick is summer time! (it’s just too hot!) But ya’ll, its almost fall!! Temperatures start to drop, just a little, and the Texas Hill Country is full of fall fun! You could pack each weekend with events and still not be able to do them all. Here are a few of my favorites and a couple that I will be trying this year for the first time!

Harvest of Fall Festival

Sweet Berry Farm, Marble Falls

Sept 21 — Nov 10

With over 13 activities and a wide variety of pumpkins and snacks, this festival is great for the whole family! I can’t wait to try a maze and paint pumpkins. But I’m really excited for the ‘pick your own flowers’ event!

The Great Hill Country Pumpkin Patch

Love Creek Orchards, Medina

Every Saturday, Sunday & Monday in October

Pumpkin painting, farm animals, games, hayrides, and scarecrow building…plus much more! We always walk away with happy kids and full bellies from all the apple goodies!

See a video here.

Fredericksburg Food & Wine Festival

Fredericksburg

October 26

This is a day full of food, beer, music, and, of course, wine! There is a silent auction, cooking demonstrations, and a giant grape toss. All of this and plenty of shopping from many great vendors.

Chamber of Screams Murder Mystery Dinner

Messina Hof Winery

October 26

Enjoy a delicious gourmet 3 course meal and wine while figuring out who the murderer is. Or maybe it’s you! This is one I haven’t done yet but can’t wait until I get to go. I’m all about ghost stories and my favorite game was always Clue. Throw in the fact that I love a good meal and this is just about the perfect night for me!
