The Ruthven Apple Festival has something for everyone!
As in past, the festival begins early on Saturday morning with a
7:30am breakfast served up by the Ruthven Oddfellows and friends made with country fresh eggs, bacon, home fries and coffee. The Apple Festival
parade begins at 10:30am from the little hamlet in Ruthven (look for the signs) and leads into the festival grounds at Colasanti's Tropical Garden's in Ruthven.
Bring the entire family and enjoy two spectacular fun filled days that will include weekend long musical entertainment, a host of rides and games for children, the Apple Festival Car Show, over 100 craft and food vendors and the popular Farmers Market filled with all the bounty of Essex County.
Thanks to the support of the local community, the festival has raised a total of
$645,000 to date for Community Living Essex County in support of people with an intellectual disability.
