The annual tradition of bringing the farm to the city during this time of the year continued Saturday outside of Reading Terminal Market, for their Harvest Festival celebration.
Jimmy Iovine, who manages the produce market, is a co-founder of the annual festival, now in its 18th year.
"It is the last harvest of the year," he said. "It's like this is your last chance to harvest for the season, and then the season's over and you gotta have enough stuff to last you."
One of the staples of this event has become the hayride, according to Iovine.
"'Cause when I was a kid," he said, "I never got to go to a hayride. I grew up in the inner city in North Philly. Never would I imagine getting a hayride."
Iovine's brother Vinnie drives the tractor around. He explained, "That's a farmer's cart that they converted for a hayride, and it's literally that's all it's used for is hayrides. 50 people every ride and we will give thousands of people a ride around the block in the city."
And while you'll find a lot of food and drink outside, you'll also find a lot of hay, fruits and vegetables. They even had a vegetable display outside set up just for pictures:
"Everyone wants a selfie, I'm here for the selfies," said festival-goer Laurynn Boissoniere. "Selfie with a pumpkin, a 'pelkie,' I don't know."
Market manager Anuj Gupta talked about the market's new partnership with the Philadelphia Zoo and the Hatboro Fire Department, who brought a fire truck over.
"They're able to sound the horn," Gupta said, "climb on the fire truck, talk to the firefighters."
"I think the best thing I've seen is people just walking around with giant turkey legs," Boissoniere said. "Yeah, a bunch of beer to drink, a lot of good fresh juices, candied apples, it's awesome."
"They have so many foods and everything smells good," said Drexel student Shannon Smith, "which is so exciting, and I got a candy apple and I've been craving one so my day, it's been made."
