The Fall Fun Health Fest

October 13, 1:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. at North Springs United Methodist Church

September 27, 2018

The Fall Fun Health Fest offers families an afternoon full of fun at Sandy Spring’s only Pumpkin Patch with A Purpose! Spend a few hours choosing the perfect pumpkins, enjoying engaging kid’s activities and connecting with healthy lifestyle businesses and service providers.

Take the opportunity to explore and experience healthy living within your local community. Disconnect from technology and reconnect with your family while developing healthy habits. Let the little ones move and play, paint pumpkins, build a craft, get their faces painted and then capture the memories at the open air photo booth. Definitely an opportunity for the perfect holiday picture!

The Fall Fun Health Fest was created last year by the Sandy Springs Perimeter Chamber’s Health & Well-Being Council with the goal of connecting families and local lifestyle & wellness vendors. With an emphasis on creating more real-life connections within our community, the fest has already doubled in size for 2018. We are thrilled to offer this Event free of charge to the public* due to the generosity of our Sponsors, Community Partners, Vendors, and Volunteers. And we are proud that a percentage of the proceeds will go to a local non-profit that is serving our community on the front lines.
