Franklin Fall Festival Returns to Main Street This October

Organizers in Franklin say the event builds on years of grassroots effort to bring neighbors together and support local causes.

"It's a big step forward for Franklin, and it wouldn't have happened without a lot of people pulling in the same direction," said Laura Martin, volunteer coordinator.

Last year's turnout topped 3482 attendees, and organizers say they are hoping to top that number this time with an expanded lineup of activities for families.

Volunteers and sponsors interested in getting involved are encouraged to reach out to organizers ahead of the date.
