14th Annual Community Apple Festival

Saturday, September 16  10:00am - 2:00pm

Join us for cider making, apple tasting, pumpkin painting, tours of the Woodford Mansion, gardens and orchard, and our neighboring food forest, and enjoy lawn games and light snacks at Woodford's 14th Annual Community Apple Festival.  This kid-friendly event is free and open to the public.  Once again this year, Apple Fest takes place on the same day as the Boxer's Trail 5k, so we welcome runners and their friends and family to join us at the Mansion after the race!

CiderFest at Woodford Mansion (October 21st and 22nd)
 

Philly’s favorite fall activity returns this weekend with the sixth annual CiderFest at Woodford Mansion. Enjoy a picnic lunch and charcuterie board from Charming Charcuterie (available for purchase at the event) while sipping Philly’s finest ciders, wine and cocktails. Bring a blanket and sprawl out on the lawn and listen to live music with a backdrop of the best leaf peeping Pennsylvania has to offer. Learn how local beekeepers are using the onsite beehive to restore the local bee population. Stroll through the famous mansion during the event to see why we are raising money for its preservation and renovations to protect the vast stories of this historic landmark. Event is rain or shine!
