Pumpkin décor is outstanding this year!” Google Review, September 29, 2020“This was our first time going to the pumpkin fest, we weren’t sure what to expect. The decorations were very cute and well presented, there were a few scattered events for children to participate in like a ‘pie eating contest’ and dance competition. The ‘Dino glow’ experience was nicely done. We certainly were not disappointed with our visit.” Google Review, September 28, 2020GLOW BY NIGHTGlow by night is an immersive experience this year with even more glow and nighttime outdoor fun.
