ROCHESTER — The First Congregational Church of Rochester will host its first Harvest Festival on Saturday, Nov. 4 from 1 to 4 p.m. on the church green at 11 Constitution Way.

The event will include treats and fun for the whole family like pony rides, pumpkin and face painting, and a bounce house. Linda Summer of Agape Puppet Ministries will give a performance.

The Harvest Festival is free of charge, but the church welcomes donations of instant potatoes, stuffing mix, or cans of soup or cranberry sauce to support community families at Thanksgiving.
