Harvest Fest And Cowboy Festival Return
The Stanley Farmer’s Market and Mountrail County Garden Club hosted their annual Harvest Festival on Saturday, Sept. 27 at the Mountrail County South Complex with vendors inside and outside.
The annual event offers something for everyone. Farmers market participants had their fresh produce, homemade treats, and merchandise. They were by other vendors selling everything homegrown and homemade.
This event was the last one on the schedule for the Farmer’s Market this year.
The North Dakota Equine Association also brought their Cowboy Fall Festival back to the Mountrail County Fair Building on Saturday, Sept. 27 and Sunday, Sept. 28.
The two days offered something for all ages. For the youth, it included the Youth Ranch Clinic and Rodeo on Saturday and the Showdeo on Sunday. All ages were able to take the two days to test their horsemanship with the Equine Trail Sports obstacle courses. This is a competition where the riders choose their own ‘level’ at each obstacle for a great but doable challenge. There were in-hand and riding competitions.
There were also vendors and concessions both days, as well as pony rides and a kiddy play area.
