11 Must-Do Events in DeLand this Fall

Fall is a great time of the year to get outside, breathe cool fresh air, and transition into the holiday season. Some may not agree, but fall is a great time of the year in Central Florida. The temperatures may not be as cool as other places in the country, and the color changes in foliage may not be as drastic, but experiencing a Florida Fall should not be underestimated. The temperatures are very moderate, and the humidity is not as intense as the summer months. It is the perfect time of year to experience several outdoor events in our area before the busy holiday season begins. 

Our team at Swann and Associates wants you and your family to experience the most out of a Florida Fall, so we have put together a list of the top 11 things to do in the DeLand area this fall. (Disclaimer: your family might have so much fun, one or more of these events might become part of your annual fall tradition.) 

1. Take the kids on a hayride and pick your own fresh fruits and veggies from Vo-Lasalle Farms. 
2. The Fall Country Jamboree at the Barberville Pioneer Art Settlement in Barberville, Fla. 
3. Outdoor dining at one of our great restaurants on Mainstreet or Artisan Alley. 
4. Volusia County Fair and Youth Show. November 5 -15.
5. Stetson University Homecoming. November 13-15.
6. Make your own pancakes at the Deleon Springs Sugar Mill.
