At present, ideal weather is expected for  the Franklin Downtown Partnership (FDP) 18th annual Harvest Festival,  on Saturday, October 2.

With over 100 booths, the  "family-friendly" event will be held in downtown Franklin from noon to 5 p.m. on Main Street, Dean Avenue, West Central Street, and Depot Street, as well as the large parking area behind Rockland Bank.  If the forecast changes and the event gets rained out, it will be held instead on Sunday, October 3.

According to the FDP, "visitors to the Harvest Festival will enjoy local entertainment, delicious foods from local restaurants, fun kid crafts and activities, shop specials, artwork and crafts by area artisans and helpful information from community groups and vendors. " Dancing on Dean (avenue) will feature live music from two popular local bands: Ben Gardner’s Boat and The Driftwoods.
