Welcome back to Silver Dollar City
(side note - check out the new font on the icon logo)
The park is currently celebrating Harvest Festival and it will run through the end of October
Beware of the living scarecrow as you enter the park
Lots of pumpkins call the square home
The gourd tree makes its return again this season
A big part of this festival is the demonstrating crafters
These artists are a wealth of knowledge and are more than happy to answer questions
They are also fascinating to watch. This cooperage artist makes it look easy - that's years of perfecting his craft
Most of the craft booths are located around the square, but there are a few in other locations around the park as well
The Cowboy Boutique returns to the Carousel Barn again this year
Buck Taylor (from Gunsmoke) is the headliner here and his art is amazing
Makers Market returns to the Frisco Barn
Lots of hand crafted goods can be found here
Around the park you will also find numerous displays made from fall gourds
Everywhere you look there will be pops of fall color
The pumpkin house returns to the Red Gold Courtyard
The Fire District joined in on the fun this year
The artesian pumpkin people are located near Flanders Dry Goods this season
Down at the Chuck Wagon Camp there is an daily cook off in the afternoon
Buck Taylor served as the official today
He presented the winners with signed copy prints of one of his artworks
Finally here are a few of the pumpkins in the Garden of the Giants located in Wilson's Farm
It's always fun to see these huge pumpkins every year
