Thousands flock to Kimmswick each year for the Apple Butter Festival to buy the local historical society's famous apple butter on Market Street. Kids will love the train rides, petting zoo, pony rides and more. There will also be hundreds of booths to visit with crafts, food and live entertainment.
The town will be closed to vehicle traffic, and visitors may park at the Windsor School, located on Highway 61/67, and catch a bus into town.
The Kimmswick Historical Society will be making and selling their famous Apple Butter at the Apple Butter Pavilion on Market Street. 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Free admission.
