Sometimes in Arizona, we still have 100 degree days. This year is the hottest year we have ever recorded, so it may be a bit difficult to enter the spirit or mood of autumn, but one thing that helped me is the great autumn festival by Our local farmers put it on! If you live in Arizona or come here to visit and spend a few hours visiting these farms, you will not only be immersed in the festive atmosphere, but also help support local farmers!
Although 2020-21 will be difficult years for many of us, I am very happy to see that our local farm will host an autumn festival! I can’t wait to visit everyone and have some good memories to start the holiday!
