Fort Totten, Queens Farm Museum to Host Halloween Events

Fort Totten and the Queens County Farm Museum will host spooky Halloween events later this month for northeast Queens children.

The Friends of Fort Totten Parks is holding a two-part celebration of the fall season and Halloween.

On Oct. 26, the group will provide games, rides and craft projects at Crocheron Park from noon to 3 p.m.

There will also be a pumpkin patch, costume contest and goodie bags.

Attendees should enter the park at 33rd Road and 215th Place. The event is typically held at Fort Totten, but construction in the parking lot at Little Bay Park forced the group to move this year’s celebration to Crocheron Park.

And the Friends will also host Fort on Haunted Hill lantern tours on Oct. 25 and 26 between 6:30 p.m. and 8:30 p.m.

Attendees should bring a flashlight. For more information, call 718-760-3684.

The Queens County Farm Museum, located at 73-50 Little Neck Parkway, will hold a children’s fall festival from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Oct. 27.

The Halloween-themed event will include games, a bouncy house, pony rides, a petting zoo and a haunted house. Professional character look-a-likes will also be in attendance.

Children are invited to wear costumes.

Craft vendors will sell items at the festival and attendees will be able to sample food from local eateries and listen to country western music.

Admission is $5 per person, but those with memberships to the farm museum will get in free.

And the farm will operate a haunted house from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Oct. 25, 26 and 27.

Visitors will be able to take hayrides and snack on Halloween treats and mulled cider. Pumpkins and apples will be sold during the event.
