Autumn is here, and with it came the return of the 15th annual Harbor Harvest Children’s Fall Festival.

The Waterfront Partnership brought a taste of farm life to the Inner Harbor with pony rides, pumpkins and arts and crafts.

The free festival included a pumpkin patch with hundreds of pumpkins for picking, a petting zoo with various farm animals, a large hay maze, a family-friendly movie screening, arts and crafts stations, local food trucks, amusement rides and live entertainment from stilt walkers.

Admission to the festival was free but some of the activities were ticketed, including a trackless train ride, pony rides, face painting and carnival rides.

The Baltimore Banner thanks its sponsors. Become one.

At the Harbor Harvest Festival two children pose for their parents at this pop-up pumpkin patch in the Inner Harbor. In true kid fashion, this young Ravens fan was much more excited about posing in his shirt, than with any pumpkin.
