Fall Festival Fun at Penn

October 22, 2025 By Sharon Machrone

Link’s K-4 scholars had a fantastic time at the annual Fall Festival, thanks to our partners from the Greater Newark Conservancy, Food Corps NJ, and Link staff. This was a fun educational experience, with our students visiting several stations in the Garden Classroom. They learned about urban animals, the life cycle of pumpkins, tasted different apple varieties, made all themed bookmarks, and even participated in a scavenger hunt, all under the bright sun. We were excited to host preschoolers from @urbanleagueec Early Childhood Center, who enthusiastically joined in the activities…and some gym recess time…with Linkers.
