WHITINSVILLE - The VCC Harvest Festival, sponsored by the Village Congregational Church in Whitinsville, is scheduled for Saturday, September 25, from 9:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m. on the Town Common in Whitinsville.  (The rain date will be Sunday, September 26 from 12:00 noon until 4:00 p.m.).

A 13-year tradition on the Northbridge Park common returns this year across from Village Congregational Church on 5 Church St. Whitinsville.  VCC brings the community a full day of arts, crafts, plants, food court, bounce pad, entertainment, children’s activities and games, face painting, music, a huge variety of raffle prizes and a very special handmade quilt raffle.

VCC is currently looking for volunteers and accepting vendors of various handcrafted arts and crafts, artisanal products, herbs, honey products, jewelry and crafted home decor. Check the Village Congregational Church Facebook page to request an application or simply reach out to Harvest Fair Vendor Coordinator, Claudia Dexter at office@vccucc.org. Sign up soon. Vendor space includes a 12’x12’ space on the park common at $40 per space. All applicants are vetted and approved for appropriate wares and variety. Educational organizations and local businesses wishing to promote their craft classes or farm stands are welcome to apply.
