The Pumpkin Walk is a cherished tradition for many families. Georgia Gerrity, a long-time attendee, shares her fondness for the event. “I mean even during the day, it’s still an amazing setup,” she says, noting her frequent visits with her family.
As families select their perfect pumpkins, the garden’s displays are continuously updated, ensuring a fresh experience with each visit. “It’s ever-changing,” Kukuchka explains. “If you come now, it might look a little different than when you come in a few weeks. We are always getting more pumpkins in and rearranging and changing it up.”
