About
Harvest is a time for celebration! So visit the Ulster Folk Museum and celebrate Harvest on Saturday 26th September.
Harvest marks the end of the growing season when crops are finally ready for gathering and processing, and you can experience it for yourself at Ulster Folk Museum. Roll up your sleeves and get stuck in with potato picking and apple harvesting, make your own harvest knot, and enjoy the smells of baking demonstrations in our traditional cottages.
Try berry mashing and apple pressing, watch butter making demos and sample potato bread. See harvest skills in action at the working farm and say hello to the donkeys! Watch threshing, ploughing and straw rope making at the farm, and take a ride in the horse and carriage. Explore our exhibit buildings, decorated for harvest, enjoy traditional music sessions, and meet the makers as they showcase their crafts. Discover what’s growing in autumn hedgerows with the Botanical Society of Britain and Ireland. Bring the little ones along so they can enjoy children's craft activities.
The Ulster Folk Museum honour that spirit of togetherness and tradition. Celebrate the abundance of nature and the rhythms of rural life at Harvest.
