The annual Farm Harvest Festival event is a campus tradition that celebrates the natural world, sustainability, and the harvest season at the University Farm's Squire Valleevue Farm and Valley Ridge Farm properties. 

Historically, this festival has offered guests the opportunity to celebrate the autumn season through festive games and activities, live performances, seasonal snacks, tours of the Biology Department Research sites, and even learn how our Farm Food Program collaborates with Bon Appétit, Rust Belt Riders, and other local organizations.

Transportation will be available on a predetermined schedule in limited quantities during registration, however those interested in carpooling, riding bicycles, or ridesharing are also welcome!

If you would like to volunteer, perform, or host an activity booth during the festival, please email farm@case.edu and we will be in touch!

The purpose of the Farm Food Program is to grow food at the University Farm to supply locally grown and fresh vegetables to the campus dining rooms and university community. The goals of this initiative are to provide new educational opportunities to faculty and students, to study local food production in a sustainable way using organic methods, and to deliver fresh food and herbs to the campus—and to the university community.
