In Bedford, Thanksgiving is no longer the forgotten holiday
Before the tinsel takes over, we’re reclaiming November. This is a time for pie, quiet mountain walks, and real gratitude. Skip the holiday rush and spend a slow weekend exploring Bedford County's backroads, historic taverns, and crisp trails. Thanksgiving, it’s finally your time to shine in Bedford County, PA
Halloween is over. Christmas can wait. Thanksgiving needs a hug.
And to truly reclaim Thanksgiving, we need YOU. This month, join us in taking the pledge to avoid skipping over Thanksgiving. Postpone the panicked shopping and enjoy the last moments of fall at a local orchard, sourcing something local for your Thanksgiving meal and completing your dining room table with the perfect local designs.
The holiday season will still be there when it's over.
