The 2022 Oconee Family Fall Festival kicked off on Sunday outside Sacred Heart Parish, located at 201 North Walnut Street in Oconee, IL. The festival featured plenty of great food, including Rib-eye sandwiches, Ribbon Fries, Kettle corn, homemade ice cream and more. There were also activities for the entire family to enjoy, such as hay rides, a petting zoo and live music.
First time volunteer Adam Oller says that money raised from the festival goes to support Sacred Heart School.
This year’s festival comes as the Sacred Heart Parish is celebrating their 150th anniversary. Annette Sims says that there are some added raffles this year to help celebrate the anniversary.
The Oconee Family Fall Festival continues on each of the next two Sundays, October 2nd and 9th from 11am-4pm each day. Learn more on the Oconee Family Fall Festival Facebook page or by visiting OconeeFallFestival.com.
