On September 18, visitors to Ada enjoyed perhaps the largest Harvest and Herb festival in its 35-year history, according to Ada Area Chamber of Commerce director Deb Curlis.
With booths and food trucks stretching from North Avenue to the Ohio Northern campus, visitors shopped, ate, and celebrated the harvest season.
The Ada-Liberty Township Fire Department made a breath-taking American flag display at Main and Buckeye. First responders also made a presentation at the depot commemorating September 11, sharing their personal experiences of that day and enouraging audience members to join them in preparing for emergencies and serving their community.
A non-emergency visit during the September 18 Harvest and Herb Festival brought the Mercy Health Life Flight helicopter to the parking lot of the Pennsylvania Railroad depot. Between dramatic landing and takeoff, visitors could catch a close-up glimpse of the emergency medial service.
