Celebrate Ocean Spray's Sixth Annual Fall Harvest at Patriot Place

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – Enjoy the return of fall in New England with Ocean Spray’s sixth annual Fall Harvest Celebration at Patriot Place on Saturday, Oct. 17. The all-day event is free, open to the public and perfect for families looking to experience a wide variety of autumn-themed fun. The celebration begins at 10 a.m. with the Ocean Spray Cranberry Harvest at the cranberry bog behind Bass Pro Shops.

“This is always one of my favorite days at Patriot Place, as the event truly celebrates fall in New England,” Patriot Place General Manager Brian Earley said. “We have a lot of fun activities planned throughout the day for families to enjoy the beautiful outdoor setting behind Bass Pro Shops with the cranberry bog and nature trail, as well as entertainment, children’s programming and cranberry-inspired seasonal food sampling throughout our North Marketplace.”

Dormant for years, the bog was brought back to life by Ocean Spray, which harvested it for the first time at Patriot Place in 2011. The 2015 harvest will be open for public viewing beginning at 10 a.m. and will offer families a great photo opportunity while Ocean Spray cranberry farmers harvest the fruit of their labor.

Other fall activities throughout the day include hay rides behind Bass Pro Shops, pumpkin and face painting, live music, appearances by Patriots Cheerleaders and team mascot, Pat Patriot, a Taste of Patriot Place and much more.
