Autumnfest HdG

10/07/2026

Thank you to everyone who supported the Havre de Grace Maritime Museum on Sunday for the Autumnfest by attending the event despite the weather.

Thank you to all the volunteers and staff of the HdG Maritime Museum and Boat Builders! We moved the event inside which I believe the vendors and visitors greatly appreciated. We had native plants, mums, pumpkins, children's games, pumpkin decorating. Thank you also to our Storytime readers at 1 and 3 who read the true story "The Dog Who Saved The Bees" with a visit from Cybil Preston herself (Chief Apiary Inspector/State Apiarist) and new scent detection dog Tukka, The Harford Nature Collaboration and among the exhibits our wonderful vendors. I sincerely appreciate the ones outside, Crabby Pretzel, Bates Concessions and 1 of our vendors.

Hope to see you and whoever missed it, next year!

P.S. We do have Native Plants available. If interested contact me at [email protected] and I will send you a list. Fall is the best time to plant!
