During the second week of October, local artists are commissioned to carve GIANT 150 pound pumpkins for all to see under the big-top. Thousands of visitors flocked to see their awesome and spooky handiwork and be part of the fun fall festivities at the most popular fall event in Hopewell Valley – now in its 11th year!
What’s the Carve All About? Think old-fashioned fall festival vibe – but with a twist! The Amazing Pumpkin Carve is four jam-packed days of:
– Mind blowing 150+ pound carved giant pumpkins
– Live music and fire pits with story tellers
– Face and mini-pumpkin painting, fun for the whole family
– Food trucks and new for 2025 – a BEER garden
