Octoberfest Season Arrives at Playwicki Farm This Weekend
Feasterville Trevose, PA · September 28, 2026
Shaking off the weekend drizzle and stepping out into crisp late-September air makes tackling Monday morning considerably easier. Between morning tai chi and a busy week of community gatherings, there is plenty on the calendar to get things moving.
The Lead
Autumn is hitting full stride across the township, and local organizers are already channeling that momentum toward Playwicki Farm. The 110-acre historic farmstead along Bridgetown Pike takes center stage this coming Saturday, October 3, for its signature annual Octoberfest.
After inclement weather curtailed the weekend's outdoor gatherings, township volunteers and regional vendors are turning all their efforts toward the upcoming harvest celebration. The family-friendly festival brings together artisan craft booths, regional food trucks, live music, and children's activities spanning the open lawns and historic farm buildings. Beyond a celebration of the changing leaves, the gathering raises essential preservation funding to maintain the site's open walking trails and agricultural heritage. Grounds volunteers begin mapping vendor layouts and staging parking areas along the perimeter loop this Thursday.
