Fall Family Fun in JoCo

    A little girl stares at a beautiful stack of hay with pumpkins sitting on the hay and scarecrows surrounding the fall décor.Fall in Johnston County means pumpkin-picking, corn mazes, and plenty of festivals! Get outside the city and visit one of our many farms, including Sonlight Farms, where you can experience adorable animals, a giant slide, a corn maze, and more. Use your weekends to attend a wonderful festival, like the Four Oaks Acorn Festival, the Annual Benson Mule Days, Selma Railroad Days, or the Bentonville Fall Festival. As the weather begins to cool down, travel along the JoCo Coffee Trail for all the flavors of fall and shop our local downtowns and boutiques. There's always something happening in Johnston County and you can look for the perfect fall activity or event using our calendar - which features concerts, trivia nights, vendor fairs, and more!  

    Johnston County is a destination located "just outside the city," only 30 minutes east of Raleigh, and convenient for visitors traveling through NC at the crossroads of I-95 and I-40! Be sure to #VisitJoCo! Our rich history, recreationagritourism, and emerging culinary scene are just a few reasons to stop and stay a while...don't pass us by! 

    Make plans for a weekend trip to experience all we have to offer. Book a hotel stay, camping trip, or unique lodging arrangements. Take the time to explore and enjoy JoCo this autumn! We offer you a festive JoCo welcome!
