IT WOULDN’T BE a carnival without some good old fried carnival food. Those who walk through the carnival at the Battle Ground Harvest Days Celebration will notice a variety of food vendors to choose from, including those offering typical carnival-type fare such as elephant ears, hot dogs, burgers and more.

RIDERS AND HORSES from FarmHill Equestrian Center were a popular participant among parade goers during last year’s Harvest Days Parade. The annual parade typically includes a number of different horses and their riders, sometimes dressed in colorful and sparkly costumes.

MANY BUSINESS OWNERS and their families participate in the annual Harvest Days Parade in order to promote their business. Some businesses hand out goodies like candy, coupons, T-shirts and more.
