On Saturday, October 21st between 11am-3pm, experience the bounty of land and sea alongside the region’s finest oyster purveyors, farmers, and artisans in Kennebunkport... A celebration of autumnal abundance!

From tart apple cider and nutty pumpkin, to briny-sweet oysters and seasonal beers, fall is an exceptional time to have a taste of Maine. Plus, peruse the wares of local craftspeople and sing and sway along to the sounds of special musical guests, Maine's own Don Campbell Band and Miami singer-songwriter Yoli Mayor.
