Seasonal guide · September and October
Fall is a short, golden season in Caldwell: the Indian Creek Festival takes over the plaza in September, the wine trail celebrates harvest, and the nights turn crisp enough for a dog-friendly October party.
What's happening
Fall is short, so the calendar is concentrated: one big festival weekend in September, a dog-friendly October party, and the quiet pleasure of harvest season out on the wine trail. Confirm exact dates with the organizer before you go.
Third weekend of September
A free two-day community festival on the plaza: a cardboard kayak race on the actual creek, a car show, chalk art, a dog costume contest, live music, and a local marketplace. It is Caldwell's big September weekend.
Early October
A dog-friendly October celebration at Indian Creek Plaza, made for crisp fall evenings and four-legged company.
September and October
Fall is harvest season in the vineyards west of town. The tasting rooms along the Sunnyslope Wine Trail are busy, and The Orchard House is baking its famous homemade pies.
Confirm exact dates, times, and tickets with the organizer before you head out.
Why fall
Fall in Caldwell is built around the Indian Creek Festival, a free two-day community celebration that fills the plaza with a cardboard kayak race on the actual creek, a car show, chalk art, a dog costume contest, live music, and a local marketplace.
Beyond the plaza, the orchards and vineyards west of town are in full harvest. It is the best time of year for a slow afternoon on the Sunnyslope Wine Trail, and The Orchard House is serving its famous homemade pies.
