Horses in costumes featured at Savage horse farm fall fest

H.M. Savage Farm held its Fall Festival this past Sunday, Sept. 30, at its farm on Route 103 South in Chester.

Almost 150 people attended the free event that included crafts, face painting, musical hay bales, apple bobbing, potato sack races and many more family oriented activities.

The highlight of the event was an equine costume competition. Twenty-five children from local towns and 22 horses dressed in festive costumes designed by the children and their parents.

Awards were given to each child. Following the fun was an enormous potluck lunch. The Savage family is hoping to continue the tradition next year.
