Howlin’ at the Moon featuring Belle-Skinner

Belle-Skinner is a dark nostalgic singer-songwriter based in New York. With a hauntingly beautiful, lilting soprano and innate sense of melody she crafts tales of songbirds, sirens and desert nomads – nuanced and layered stories which bridge the gap between past and present.

Bateau Sunset Cruise

On this sunset cruise, we’ll recreate a Mohawk River journey, albeit at a relaxing pace. Each ticket includes a cocktail as a standard ration, so sit back, relax, and take in the sunset!

Workshop: Felt a Fox

In this workshop, we'll felt an adorable little chicken, using wool from our herd. Choose your hen's coloring, and join us in making a cute gift for friends, family, or even yourself.

Jan Mabee’s Twilight Tours

Mabee Farm as it’s meant to be explored; awash in changing colors, the wind gusting outside, and the flickering lights of the Mabee house keeping us cozy and warm.

$6.00 – $12.00

Night of Lights

Our sponsor members, benefactor members, and donors are invited to an exclusive evening reception celebrating the opening of the Festival of Trees! We'll have great food from Wagon Train, wine, cheese, desserts, and of course the spectacular sneak-preview of glittering fir trees. Live music, too!
