Battery Urban Farm Harvest Festival

At this annual fall fest, city kids can get a taste of farm life in just about the most unlikely locale, where down-home delights like potato sack races, veggie trivia, tours of the farm, bobbing for apples, scavenger hunts and garden-themed art projects, all of which are free, turn the Financial District into an agrarian escape. After enjoying a cup of cider and a locally-sourced seasonal sweet, kids can attend a farm workshop where they learn what goes on among the animals. Ages 2 to 10.
