Oktoberfest at Pluck Farm is a two-day, autumn community festival featuring German-inspired food, live music, and outdoor activities. The event brings together local craft beverages and traditional seasonal games on a spacious farm property. If you are planning to go, the festival runs from noon to 8:00 PM on Saturday, October 3, and Sunday, October 4. Admission is free, but you will want to bring card or cash for food trucks, commemorative steins, and drinks. The venue has plenty of open grass, making it ideal for toddlers and elementary-aged children who need space to move around. Pack lawn chairs or a picnic blanket, as seating fills up quickly near the music stage. This gathering is an easy choice for the weekend because it combines a relaxed, wide-open farm setting with structured activities to keep children occupied. Parents can sit back with a local cider or non-alcoholic lager while the kids burn off energy in the bounce house.
