We can't believe it's been over two weeks since 1,100 of our delightful fun- loving neighbors spent the day with us at the American Music and Harvest Festival.
We have so many to thank - starting with our lead sponsor - the Institution for Savings. Their sponsorship allows for 100% of the pre ticket sales to be donated to the education foundation of your choice. Thank you for supporting our schools and the arts!
Thank you to our wonderful mix of musical talent for the entire day - NHS band, Pathological Outliars, Chris O'Donnell, The Portermen, Red tail Hawk, A Different Engine, Kate Redgate Music and Das Pintos kept us tapping our feet and dancing throughout the day!
A big thank you to our vendors and off stage entertainment.
Ipswich Ale Brewery, Newburyport Brewing Co., Mill River Winery, Long Hill Orchard, CopperDome Crust, Tinkerhaus, The Sunny Side Lifestyle Co., Alan Bull Art Studio, Essex Base Ball Organization and Phaneuf Farm Alpacas LLC - kept us entertained, well fed and hydrated throughout the day!
Our day of music would not have happened without the hard work of Dave Hill of Fusion Blue Productions and Ken Okaya. They were here long before our guests arrived to set up and long after - thank you.
A full day festival takes a lot of folks before the event and throughout the day of the event - Many spent the whole day working for a successful festival, our thanks and many donkey smooches to- Madison Vlass, and all the wonderful and long-suffering guides and volunteers at the farm, Arleen Shea, Carol Herlihy, Carrie Luistro O'Donnell and the Newburyport Education Foundation,Krista Katsapetses Yablin and Alex, Sara Willman-Laplante, Derek Laplante, Jane O'Keefe, and Shawn Bleau and the boys soccer team.
Our biggest thanks goes to all of you - those who spent their day with us - supporting the schools and enjoying a fabulous fall Saturday together at Spencer-Peirce-Little Farm.
