Or maybe you only run for chocolate.

We’re back!! Since 2008, we’ve made the Gore Mountain Harvest Fest a staple event. Lots of fun, lots of things to do, lots of entertainment…and of course…lots of FlavorWow™ chocolates! Visit our booth for a taste of the Flavorondacks™!
The Myths About Scaling Up
After Lights On, but before the North Country Singers Concert at Tannery Pond, kids and their parents will gather under our enclosed tent to sip hot chocolate and ask questions of Mrs. Claus. What is it you always wanted to know but didn’t have an opportunity to ask?
Who’s your favorite elf?
How cold does it get on the North Pole?
Does Santa ever get lost?
Proceeds will go to a local charity – kids and their families will get to shop in our store at a 10% discount the day of our event. Hot chocolate will be delicious!

This year, we’re offering a special event for kids to meet and mingle with Mrs. Claus. For an hour and a half, children will get to hang with Santa’s Number One helper (though she’ll tell you she does most of the work and gets none of the cookies).
Our interactive event will last approximately 90 minutes and includes hot cocoa and a special Christmas treat for each child. Kids will get to submit questions for Mrs. Claus that they’ve always wanted to ask. She’ll read stories and bestow her wisdom upon everyone.
The event begins at 1:00 on Saturday, December 2, after the North Creek Christmas Parade.
A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Johnsburg Food Pantry.
