Operated by Kroll's Fall Harvest Farm · Waukegan, Illinois
Located just north of Chicago in Waukegan, Illinois, Kroll's Fall Harvest Farm invites visitors to their second annual Fall Flower Festival & Art & Craft Show on September 20th and 21st. This two-day event offers a fresh take on outdoor farm experiences by merging vibrant seasonal blooms with the creative works of local artisans, setting it apart from typical autumn festivals in the region.
As fall sets in with crisp air and shifting colors, the farm bursts into a distinct palette of deep oranges, reds, and yellows—not just from the surrounding foliage but prominently from the bold fall flower displays. Visitors can wander through rows of chrysanthemums, sunflowers, and asters, all cultivated to showcase peak autumn beauty. Fresh cut flower bouquets are available for purchase, making it easy to bring a piece of the festival home.
Beyond floral attractions, the Art & Craft Show highlights regional craftsmanship—from handcrafted pottery to unique woodwork and textile art—providing a tactile connection to the local culture. Kroll's Fall Harvest Farm maintains a welcoming atmosphere with no general admission fee; guests pay only for activities they choose, which may include hayrides, corn mazes, or fresh flower sales.

It serves as a vital community gathering point each autumn, supporting local artists and encouraging sustainable farming practices.
