Bucks Food Calendar: Oct 30, 2017

If you missed out on some of the Hallo-weekend food and fun, not to worry. Many of the activities continue through Halloween (tomorrow).

This week, stroll through farms to see scarecrows and spooky jack-o-lanterns, along with other creepy fall arrangements. And check out local food forums and evenings of wine and food tastings. Celebrate the end of October in Bucks County!

The Jack-O-Lantern Stroll

Imagine walking along the beautiful Delaware Canal through the historic borough of Yardley, PA on a crisp fall day before or during Halloween. Hundreds of carved Jack-O-Lanterns lit up will guide your way through the fall evening. It’s a perfect way to celebrate Halloween! The stroll is down the Delaware Canal Towpath, leading north from Afton Avenue Bridge to the end of the paved road (North Edgewater Avenue), approximately ¼ mile. Continues all this week through Sunday, November 5.

Movie at the Continental Tavern

Watch a spellbinding mini-documentary premiering at the Continental Tavern, in Yardley, PA everyday up until Halloween. The show runs every two hours, and while you are there, grab a drink, watch the show (30 minutes), have dinner, then visit Canal-o-Ween. Visit their website for more information.

Halloween Party at the Logan Inn

Celebrate Halloween with a spooktacular Halloween party on the outdoor patio at the Logan Inn. Grab a witch’s brew (or just a regular brew) and party. Wear your best costume because the winner receives dinner for two and a personal reading from Spiritual Medium, Edward Tabbitas. Starts at 7:30 pm. Check out their Facebook page for more information.

Food and Social Justice Forum

Do you know what the new face of hunger looks like and its root causes? Are you curious about the innovative approaches to alleviating food-insecurity and food-inequality? If so check out a forum presented at Delaware Valley University, including several well-known local food experts.

Panelists include: Cathy Snyder, Founder and Executive Director of Rolling Harvest Food Rescue; Tony D’Orazio, Owner of Carversville Farm Foundation; John Crooke, Owner of Tinicum CSA; and Pastor Vicky Allen, from First United Methodist Church of Fairless Hills, PA. Visit DelVal’s site for more information.
