GRAFTON, Mass. – It was a perfect day for some fall festivities in Grafton as the community turned out for the 15th annual Harvest Home Fall Festival Sunday.

The festival was put on by the Community Harvest Project, it’s a nonprofit farm which donates its fresh fruits and vegetables through the hunger relief network in Central and Eastern Massachusetts. The event featured family activities like hay rides, a petting zoo, scare crow contest, food and live music.

But crowd favorites were the apple cannons where people could take turns shooting apples more than 300 feet, and the trebuchet where volunteers launched pumpkins into the sky. The Community Harvest Project says they are excited to not only provide nutritious food to people in need, but also bring the community together.

"We are so happy to have been in Grafton since 2002 and we have an orchard in Harvard, Mass.," said the executive director of the Community Harvest Project, Tori Buerschaper. "We strive to be a place not only to provide food to the community but it's a community space to come together to get to meet other people, spend time outside, to get their hands in the dirt, and to do something meaningful where they can all give back together to provide fresh fruits and vegetables for our community."

Proceeds from Sunday's event will go to the community harvest project for next year's farming for hunger relief. 280,000 pounds of produce were distributed to people in need this year.
