(SUMMIT, NJ) -- Now that summer is a thing of the past, it’s time to celebrate the autumn season upon us. The leaves are changing, there’s a crispness in the air, and fun festivals await at Reeves-Reed Arboretum! The non-profit public garden in Summit will kick off the season with Celebrate Fall on Sunday, October 15, 2023, from 11:00am to 3:00pm. This family-friendly fair will feature fall-themed games, crafts and activities for the kids, photo opportunities throughout the beautiful gardens and woodlands, a spooky Halloween trail, pumpkins, music, an art exhibit, market vendors, festive food, and adorable goats – fun for the whole family!
A week later, the Arboretum will transform into a ‘biergarten’ on Saturday, October 21, 2023, from 2:00pm to 6:00pm for Oktoberfest. This 21 and older seasonal fete is a signature Put the ‘PUB’ in Public Garden fundraiser for Reeves-Reed Arboretum and will serve up bottomless premium ales, Bavarian-style bratwurst, pretzels, and delicious German side dishes. The afternoon's festivities will be complete with live music by popular oom-pah band, Doppelgänger, and fun lawn games. Break out your lederhosen or dirndl as Oktoberfest attire is highly encouraged!
