Celebrating Autumn: Trunk 'R Treat and More

All summer long, the Hartford Farmers Market has been a great place to find fresh produce, homemade baked goods, handmade treasures, locally grown goodies, kids' activities, and live music. Now, the market-season spirit is getting a fall makeover, with even more reasons to make the short drive to Hartford.

You'll find plenty of vendors to browse and shop, along with food to enjoy and activities designed to keep the kids entertained. Face painting and games will give the little ones plenty to do, and, of course, there will be plenty of treats to collect during the Trunk 'R Treat.

A Perfect Sunday Getaway for Families

It's a nice chance to get the family out of the house, enjoy some of that wonderful early-October weather, support local vendors and businesses, and spend a little time in one of the Sioux Falls area's friendly neighboring communities.
