Are you looking for your chance to create the perfect jack-o’-lantern? Welcome to Gather Local Market‘s Pumpkin Festival, where all you need to bring is your friends, family, and your creativity. This family-friendly afternoon at Gather Local Market includes a pumpkin, carving help, and a $5 Gather Gold Card, and will have guaranteed fun for all ages. There’s no better way to celebrate our short but amazing fall season than gathering with the people you love for an afternoon, and carving an awesome pumpkin with classic designs, playful or fun designs, or something unique you designed all on your own.

You can expect so much more than just pumpkin carving. A few other free activities you’ll find throughout the day include pumpkin games, a photo wall, an art corner, and more. As always, families will find delicious food and drinks available for purchase inside Gather Local Market. The Pumpkin Festival is open to all ages and all skill levels.

How it Works

Each person will get their very own pumpkin and use of the market’s carving tools. Under the guidance of the pumpkineers, participants will be able to create their masterpiece to take home.

$5 Gather Gold Card

Each Pumpkin Festival attendee will get a $5 Gather Gold card to purchase a drink or a snack from one of the Gather Local restaurants or vendors.
