Harvest Festival (SDC)

 


Welcome back to the 'City and to the Harvest Festival

The square is really decked out in our sorts of fall produce

There are pumpkins everywhere

There are also lots of crafters on park for the festival

Some really cute help working here

Love the demonstrations going on all over the park

Buck Taylor of Gunsmoke was on hand selling his famous watercolors

Lots of pumpkins to see up in the Wilson's Farm area

There are pumpkins literally everywhere

This is also where the giant pumpkins are located

Really enjoyed the names that were selected this year

One of our favorite parts of this festival is the Chuck Wagon

Our favorite dish they serve during the day is the apple cobbler

Take time to have a look at their set up.  It is really neat

The pumpkin cottage is back near Red Gold

This is also where you can find the pumpkin carver

The crafter pumpkins have been moved to near Boatworks Theatre this year


We enjoy the new location

Pumpkin Plaza has opened for the evening so that means it won't be long before it is time for Pumpkins in the City
