Great Wilton Pumpkin Fest at Wilton Historical Society

The 6th Annual Great Wilton Pumpkin Fest returns Saturday, October 17, from 1 to 3 pm at the Wilton Historical Society for an afternoon of autumn activities and pumpkin-themed fun for all ages. Visitors can watch docents demonstrate open-hearth cooking and blacksmithing, try fall-themed lawn games, and explore the museum campus with a pumpkin scavenger hunt. Complimentary cider and donuts will also be available.

Guests can pick out a pumpkin to take home at the Wilton Kiwanis Pumpkin Patch on the Society’s front lawn, then decorate it at the pumpkin decorating station. The Kiwanis will also offer small gourds and mums for sale to add to seasonal displays.

The festival is generously supported by ASML. Admission is $5 per person and free for Wilton Historical Society members. Tickets can be purchased in advance for quicker check-in or at the door on the day of the event.

The event takes place at Wilton Historical Society, 224 Danbury Road, Wilton, CT.
