The Fifth Annual Urban Applefest and Apple Pie Baking Contest is taking place Saturday, Oct. 23 from 11 a.m.-2 p.m. at the Union Project at the corner of Stanton and Negley avenues in Highland Park. Admission to the fest is $5 for adults and $2 for kids 12 and under (admission includes tastings of apples and ciders).
