THE HARVEST Festival at Renken Farms drew big crowds Saturday with pumpkins, pony, tractor and wagon rides, face painting and hair coloring, live entertainment and more. Above, Ike O’Leary, 8, shifts an oversized pumpkin he is carrying to the family collection in the pumpkin patch. He is from Centerville, Wash. Renken Farms is a Century Farm established in 1863. They primarily grow sweet cherries. Many of the activities were provided by Small Wonders Preschool, a program by the Great ’n Small child development center serving MCMC employees and community members as space is available.
