Welcome to the Fall Gathering!

Mark your calendars! The 2025 Fall Gathering is October 2 - 5!

“The Central Ohio Outdoors Fall Gathering feels like… home. I’ve attended for at least 4 or 5 years now and it is always a highlight of the year for me. The Fall Gathering is a welcoming place to camp, learn new skills, hang out with old friends, make new friends, and pick up a few pieces of gear from the vendors. Caleb, the organizer, is all about making your experience as smooth as possible.” - Jayberry Miller, Owner & CEO of Tuff Possum Gear
