Join Us Under the Harvest Full Moon This Fall! 

Join us for an autumn evening at the lovely and historic gardens of the Boalsburg Heritage Museum, a true Boalsburg gem dating back to 1824. Begin your evening with a leisurely stroll through the gardens, explore the historic barn and museum, and soak in the charm and history of this special place.

Then we will settle under the Harvest Full Moon for a memorable seasonal dinner celebrating Centre County’s local farmers.

As an added treat, guests will have the opportunity to enjoy a special tour of the historic Boal Tavern, offering a fascinating glimpse into Boalsburg’s rich past.

Come celebrate the harvest, local food, history, and the beauty of autumn under the full moon. Hope to see you there!

What a beautiful Blue Moon Dinner we shared on Friday night . 🌕✨
A heartfelt thank you for allowing us to use this incredible park space—it provided the perfect backdrop for an evening of connection, community, and great food.

Special thanks to for providing the delicious shrub mocktails that were enjoyed throughout the evening. Their products were also featured in all of our passed appetizers, and every bite was outstanding.

We’re also grateful to for the beautiful table settings that helped create such a warm and inviting atmosphere.

Most of all, thank you to everyone who joined us. Your presence made the evening truly special, and we’re so grateful to be part of such a wonderful community. 💙
