If you are looking for some refined country entertainment to enjoy as a family, this fall, look no further than the Gore Place. On August 28, from 4 to 7 p.m. Gore Place will be hosting a corn harvest. During this event visitors can enjoy fresh roasted corn, picked from local farms, rosemary lemonade, and lawn games including, fittingly, corn hole. You can also purchase fresh corn from the Farm Stand, and enjoy demonstrations of popular corn husk crafts, like dolls and toys.
Admission is free. The refreshments will be sold individually. All proceeds from the event will go to mission-related programs, like the farm at Gore Place.
