The historic Vander Ende–Onderdonk House in Ridgewood is holding its annual outdoor Harvest Festival on Sunday, October 11. It is a compact, hands-on fall outing: pumpkins, crafts, games, apple pressing, and the rare chance to churn butter on purpose.
- When: Sunday, October 11, noon–4 p.m.
- Where: 1820 Flushing Avenue, Ridgewood, Queens
- Admission: $10 for adults; free for children younger than 12
- Activities: arts and crafts, games, butter churning, and pressing apples for cider
- Pumpkins: complimentary for kids with an advance free child’s ticket
- Entry: use the Onderdonk Avenue gate
The event is outdoors, though there will be a large covered tent, so dress for the weather. The registration detail matters: reserve the children’s ticket ahead of time if the pumpkin is part of the plan.
