But, I'm getting ahead of myself. First more Fall fun, by first stuffing our faces with kettle corn. That sweet and salty popcorn treat is perfect for a Fall weekend and/or a Fall festival. And what better place to get kettle corn than at a Fall farm. We have several around us - filled with apple and pumpkin picking, hay rides, corn mazes, and fresh fall foods! Plus, so many Insta-ready photo ops! Do you have one of those near you? And Fall weekends are also football weekends - college and professional.
