Community Activities

Get to know the people of FPC by participating in these fun activities. Some of them benefit the church financially, some of them reach out to the wider community, and all of them help forge connections and friendships!

  • Apple Pie Project – Four weeks in the fall, many hands help picking, carrying, washing, peeling, doughmaking and rolling, filling, baking, bagging, selling, and tasting! For more information about the Apple Pie Project, contact applepies@fpc-stow-acton.org for more information.

  • Annual Auction – A spring social and fundraising event for the whole community. For more information about our auction, contact auction@fpc-stow-acton.org.

  • Retreat – We go on a church-wide at Ferry Beach in the spring, for relaxation, recharge, and getting to know each other better and enjoy each other’s company in a different setting. For more information about our Ferry Beach Retreat, email retreat@fpc-stow-acton.org.

  • Plant Sale – Our annual plant sale is usually held around Mother’s Day in the church parking lot. For more information about the sale, contact plant-sale@fpc-stow-acton.org.

  • Assabet Craft Beer & Food Truck Festival – A fun family fund raiser to benefit the church and showcase local brewers. Takes place in front of the church with craft brews, food trucks, live music, games, crafts, and fun for all ages. 

  • FPC Memorial Garden – A sacred space to remember members who have passed on 

  • Canoe Trip – This summer trip in mid-July is a wonderful all-church-family get-together, which we have done for many years now.  We have gone to the Battenkill River, on the New York / Vermont border, for camping, paddling, community supper, playing, campfire and sing-along. Sign-ups are in the spring; watch the announcements and newsletter for details. For more information about the trip, contact canoe-trip@fpc-stow-acton.org.
