This is a “scratch the surface” report on the 2025 Bluffton Fall Festival. Mind you, I spent my day at three different locations, but that just provided a sampling of the food and fun on offer across the village. I dropped by the Bluffton Craft show, the historical Schumacher Homestead and Maple Crest senior living village to get a feel for the 20th annual festival.
