Apfelfest is a festival dedicated to America’s favorite fruit! It’s a beautiful time to visit the Colonies, and you’ll find apple treats, apple gifts, and apple desserts at many of the businesses. Of course, Allen’s Orchard of Marion, IA will be on site in the Peace Garden at the Visitors Center to sell you fresh apples to take home.

Take the Apfelfest Sampling Stroll and visit a variety of businesses that will all have something apple for you to sample. When you’ve finished, turn in your brochure to be entered into a drawing for a gift certificate. Find the Sampling Stroll passport and all the great Apfelfest events in the event brochure, available at various businesses and the Amana Colonies Visitors Center.

This year find even more exciting Apfelfest things at the Peace Garden located just outside the Visitors Center.

Chainsaw artist Bobby Ward of Colony Carvers will be showcasing his fall work, including hand carved apples. A perfect souvenir of the day.
From 11:00 am – 3:00 pm we will have a Kinderplatz full of apple themed crafts, games, and stories.
Allen’s Orchard will be joining us again this year from 11:00 am – 3:00 pm selling some of their delicious apples and apple cider donuts for you to enjoy. Don’t be late or you might just miss out.
