11th Foxburg Food, Art & Wine Festival

As vibrant tawny leaves transform the landscape in the Allegheny Clarion Valley, so too does the little town of Foxburg emulate the color-play on the mountain slopes, with the commencing of the Food, Art & Wine Festival. Throughout the day Sunday, October 12th, more than 40 vendors will pitch their colorful tents and display their whimsical wares and edibles for all to enjoy!

A Crafter's BoothSpeckled about the street will be a variety of handcrafted and locally made items from which to choose, as festival goers prepare for the holiday season. Jewelry, knit wear, soy candles, wooden toys, artwork, creative home decor, and much more are among the many fascinations you’ll find, as well as beloved locally produced favorites, such as Pennsylvania Maple syrup products and goods from the Farmers Market. Keep an eye out for newcomers featuring everything from up-cycled furniture to fishing flies, as some of the unique attractions to look forward to. And while you’re at it, be sure to swing by Foxburg Country Club’s booth and shop for golf related merchandise from one of the country’s oldest golf courses.

Chainsaws will growl and wood chips will fly as professional chainsaw wood carvers create a multitude of sculptures live on site. Listen for the sound of melody amongst the buzz and be sure to dance to the sweet sounds of local musicians featuring everything from blues and contemporary rock to modern folk music stylings.
