Chicagoans are always investing in seasonal delights, from the cherry blossoms to the spring tulips and the apple-picking festivals, we’re all about seasonally-fun festivals over here!
Windy Acre Farms, home of the fabulous June strawberry festival, is embracing all the summer-centric fruits with a sweet-as-can-be peach festival taking place at the start of the next month.
Going on from July 8-9 and 15-16, the quaint farm is offering visitors a chance to grab the best peach cobbler out there.
Filled with peach themed-drinks, like slushies, and a full beer garden, the festival is set to take place on farm grounds in Geneva, IL, which is just over an hour away from the city.
Alongside the peaches, you’ll find a top-of-the-line grilling station for all the burgers, brats, and corn you can imagine. Make sure to grab a grilled peach as well!
A family-fun area offers plenty of space for kids to run around. With attraction tickets to the activities area starting at $16, the exciting space includes everything from tug-o-war to human-sized hamster wheels. Talk about a fun time. Sure, Chicago has plenty of kid-centric activities, but do we have a human-sized hamster wheel?
The local farmstand will also sell peach-everything from homemade syrups to freshly baked pie, peach tarts, and even peach salsa!
The festival is open from 10 am to 6 pm with the open-air farmstand and local garden center free for all to enjoy.
