An All-Volunteer Labor of Love

The Mountain State Apple Harvest Festival is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization operated entirely by an all-volunteer board. We are so grateful to our board members for the many hours they dedicate to making each festival event a success!

Since 1979, our board and volunteers have carried the festival forward — honoring the orchards, growers and families whose apple heritage has shaped the Eastern Panhandle for generations.
