Our Police Department, Fire Department, and Public Services Departments in collaboration with NC Apple Festival Volunteers, Downtown Hendersonville, and partnering agencies including Henderson County EMS, Emergency Management and Henderson County Rescue Squad put in long hours to plan and execute a safe and successful festival every year.
