Historic Stafford Farm

On a historic farm with structures dating back into the early 1800s or before, the Annual Colfax Persimmon Festival celebrates the persimmon and historic farming with a wide range of exhibits, demonstrations, arts and crafts, live music, and of course, many persimmon-related items for purchase.

Eighth Annual Festival (2015)

We plan our next gathering on Saturday, November 7, 2015, from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

Thanks to all who participated in and visited the 2014 Festival on Saturday, November 15. Weather gave us a hard time, but the sunny day created another fine event.

Admission fee: $7 per person at the gates (Children under age 12 are free.)

Please do NOT bring: pets, coolers, alcohol.
