Kids 12 and up can visit Norristown Farm Park to learn how farm workers used to weave decorative items as a symbol of continuing prosperity on the land. Then, participants make a harvest sheaf from braided raffia, grasses, or a small broom in honor of the tradition.

Guests can decorate with mixed bunches of grasses, seed heads, nuts, and other natural things with different textures. Afterwards, guests can tie the top with fall ribbon and hang on a door, pillar, or post as a reminder of the golden days of the season. To partcipate, pre-registration is required.
