RESTON, VA — The Farm at Halley Rise will be celebrating its second annual Fall Festival on Saturday in Reston. The free, family-friendly event will include music, pumpkin painting, games, and a spooky scavenger hunt.

Adjacent to the Halley Rise community off of Reston Parkway and south of the Dulles Toll Road, the farm donated more than 500 pounds of produce to Cornerstones from July through October last year.

In 2023, the farm is well on its way to doubling that amount by giving more than 1,000 pounds to the nonprofit that provides support and advocacy for those who need food, shelter, childcare, affordable housing and more.

The Farm at Halley Rise's Fall Festival will be open from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., on Saturday, at 2025 Fulton Place in Reston. The event is open to the public and registration information is available online.
