Each Saturday afternoon this October, bask in the fall vibes at Appleton Farms in Hamilton and Ipswich. The family-friendly autumn celebrations at Appleton Farms, one of the oldest continuously operating farms in the country, include hayrides, lawn games, barnyard animals, and plenty of food and drink vendors selling seasonal treats and fresh-baked goodies. On Saturday, Oct. 12, the farm hosts an Oktoberfest celebration, complete with a stein-holding competition, a live German oompah band, wood-fired pizza, and beer from local brewers like True North Ale, Notch Brewing, Ipswich Ale, and Rockport Brewing.
