This is our 3rd post about one of the best times of the year throughout the state of Delaware, now spotlighting fall festivals taking place in November. Check out our earlier posts to learn about fun events in September and October. You can get even more detailed information about events happening in central and southern Delaware and Delmarva in the Cape Gazette’s Fall Festivals Guide.
Northern Delaware
- Rockwood Paranormal Investigation, November 5. If you’re still in a Halloween frame of mind in early November, sign up to explore the Rockwood Museum, an English-style country estate located in Wilmington and built between 1851 and 1854 by banker Joseph Stanley. During this event you’ll join experienced paranormal investigators as they search from the basement to grand rooms for ghostly hauntings with the help of sophisticated equipment. You’ll need your most comfortable walking shoes and will need to be comfortable with lots of stairs.
If you’re intrigued by Rockwood but looking for something a little less frightening, visit its website for other tours and activities.
- November weekends at The Market at Coverdale, Saturdays and Sundays. Located in beautiful Greenville, this market celebrates the final weeks of the fall harvest with fresh vegetables, pastured eggs, cheeses, breads, honey and more. It all happens on a working farm with more food options, hiking and activities for all ages.
