North Spokane’s Green Bluff swelled Sunday with apple lovers, pumpkin pickers and families out enjoying the sunny, slightly crisp fall weather during a traditional trip to the Apple Festival. With this year’s bountiful harvest and apple crop, the 36 farms that participate in the monthlong event have plenty to celebrate and sell. “We had a great crop this year,” said Todd Beck, who helps run the Harvest House & Orchard family business. “The apples are heavy on the tree.” Beck’s farm is the biggest draw on Green Bluff. Aside from apples – grown on 22 of the farm’s 37 acres, there are pony rides, hay rides, hay mazes, corn mazes, bouncy castles and a Jumping Pillow about the size of a small basketball court, Pumpkin Land, live music, crafts, a gift shop, various food vendors and the legendary pumpkin doughnuts/Jody Lawrence-Turner, SR.
