Fall Farm Fest is a family-friendly afternoon event at Groundswell Incubator Farm in Ithaca, NY, on Sunday, October 18, 2026, from 1:00–4:00 PM. The event celebrates local farmers, community, and the season.

Activities include touring the farm and learning about the farmers, trying farm skills, carving pumpkins, visiting a sheep photo booth, face painting, sipping hot apple cider, eating fall treats and farm-fresh empanadas, listening to old-time music, and connecting with friends, family, and community members.
