OAKTOBER

Throughout the region, the month of October has been recognized as “Oaktober” in celebration of our most iconic native tree species. And Octoberfest has long been celebrated—in both September and October—as a beer-brewing holiday season. Join with KMLT to kick-off the autumn festivities at Oaktoberfest 2021.

All proceeds benefit the conservation efforts of Kettle Moraine Land Trust. For more information, contact rachel@kmlandtrust.org.
