Fall Harvest Fossil Festival

Held annually on the first Saturday of October, this festival combines the region's rich prehistoric history with traditional fall harvest celebrations. Children can search for Devonian-era fossils in the museum's rock park, explore the historic village buildings, and enjoy classic autumn activities like pumpkin picking and face painting. The event also features special planetarium shows and displays from the Great Lakes Fisheries, making it an educational and festive day for the whole family.
