Old Fashioned hayrides take you from location to locationThe 2009 Fortuna's Apple Harvest Festival promises to be bigger and better than ever.
Park your car at any location, hop on the hay wagons and enjoy a leisurely ride to the next stop. Take all the time you want at each location to enjoy the shows, shop or browse; there'll be another hay wagon along every twenty minutes to transport you to the next location or back to your car.

Apple Harvest Hay Wagons run from 10:30 AM to 4 PM and the Apple Harvest Express Bus operates from 1 to 5 PM. The route is from Rohner Park to Downtown to Clendenen's Cider Works to Redwood Village Shopping Center and back to Rohner Park.

The 25th annual Apple Harvest festival T-shirts will be available during the festival Downtown and at Clendenen’s. Festival shirts are $15-16.

Please visit the new Clendenen's Cider Works web site!
