Becker Farms to hold 'Trunk or Treat' family event

Becker Farms, a 340-acre working fruit and vegetable farm, invites families to its “Trunk or Treat” event to be held from 1-4 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 29, in the parking lot at 3724 Quaker Road, Gasport. A donation of $5 per person grants admission to the grounds; access to all kids' activities, including the playground, mega-slide, corn maze, petting zoo and “trunk or treating”; plus, live music at the farm. All proceeds go back to the participating local companies.

In partnership with Terry’s Corners Volunteer Fire Co., Gasport Chemical Hose Co. Station No. 1, Hartland Volunteer Fire Co., Middleport Fire Department and Tri-Town Ambulance Services, various trucks of all sizes and shapes will be on hand, decorated, and ready to give out Halloween treats.

Contests will be held for best kids costume, best adult costume and best trunk, with three winners for each category. Prizes of all levels include specialty items from Becker Farms and Vizcarra Vineyards, and the first-place best trunk wins a free wine party for 20 guests.

“Becker Farms is part of the Gasport and surrounding area,” said Amanda Vizcarra, hospitality director and fifth-generation family member. “Our ‘Trunk or Treat’ afternoon on Oct. 29 is a great way to connect local companies with guests visiting our farm and is timed perfectly with our ‘Haunted Hayride’ and ‘Becker Farms at Night,’ so that families can come out and celebrate Halloween safely together.”
