Harvest Time!
Blacksmith Demonstration at 2008 Wildlife West Harvest Festival
by John Weckerle
Later this month, on Saturday and Sunday, August 29 to 30, Wildlife West Nature Park in Edgewood will hold its annual Harvest festival celebrating the area’s culture, traditions, and agricultural heritage. This year’s festivities include a wine tasting, blacksmith demonstrations, hayrides, games and stage shows, folk music, opportunities to experienc wildife up-close, many artists and vendors, a Chuckwagon Dinner featuring Syd Masters and the Swing Riders, and a Sunday morning fun run and pancake breakfast. These events are a lot of fun, and are a great experience for the whole family. Albuquerque folks: it’s only 20 easy Interstate minutes away – and you can’t take the family to the movies (for two hours) for what you’d pay for this all-day event!
