Apple Butter Festival & Ox Roast
Watch — and help stir — apple butter bubbling in copper kettles over an open fire, tuck into a hot ox-roast sandwich, and spend a crisp fall day on the historic Village grounds.
The scent of autumn in Geauga County
For generations, the second weekend of October has meant one thing in Geauga County: the aroma of apples simmering over a wood fire. The Apple Butter Festival & Ox Roast brings that tradition to life across the historic Village grounds.
Watch the copper kettles bubble, take a turn at the stirring paddle, and make a full fall day of it with the whole family.
