This is the famous Harvest Festival that began in the apple orchards around Lembo Lake in Modena, NY in 1995. In 1997 we moved to Earlton Hill Family Campground, in Earlton, NY (which was awesome and featured Max Creek, Vasser Clements, Buddy Cage, and the Ominous Seapods among others) In 1998 the festival was held at the Logging Camp (Pine Mountian Reserve - Garth Hudson, Buddy Cage and others) in Johnsburg, NY and finally landed in 1999 at Echo Lake (David Nelson Band, Merl Saunders etc). We called Echo Lake home for five years and went on the move again. Last years 10th annual was held at the Moose River Park, in Lyonsdale and featured Richie Havens, The Persuasions, Melvin Seals and was an amazing time! This year will be no different, New Riders, Bassnectar, Tony Vacca and more! ]This event acts as the main fundraiser for NY State CAN and the New Yorkers for Compassionate Care billboard project. Beware of imposter's. NOT at Echo Lake!
