It’s the Annual FREE Pumpkin Party that everyone has come to know and love. Pumpkins are donated by Pine Tree Apple Orchard and brought to the Story Garden for neighbors to come and pick their own! While families choose their favorite pumpkin, you can also enjoy a bonfire, kid friendly movie, snacks, hot apple cider and games! It’s a beautiful night to come out and enjoy the best fall has to offer right in our own backyard!
