BREVARD COUNTY, FLORIDA – I recently had the opportunity to talk with Korinn Braden, Executive Director of Field Manor, about their upcoming Fall Festival.

The Fall Festival will take place Sunday, October 26, from 2 p.m. to 7 p.m. at Field Manor, 570 Field Manor Drive, Merritt Island, Florida.

You can expect food trucks, museum tours, silent auctions, vendor markets, raffles, and much more.

The Beatles tribute band, Day Tripper, will perform from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m.

Braden told me that the Fall Festival is a “wonderful way for people to learn more about Field Manor.” She also said that proceeds from the Festival will “help with our historic preservation efforts.”

Bring a blanket, bring a lawn chair, and enjoy this worthwhile event.
