A Night of 1587 Pumpkins

In 1587, English colonists came to Roanoke Island. Nigh of 1587 Pumpkins is an event at which we attempt to light 1,587 jack-o-laterns. The evening will consist of trick-or-treating, contests, and of course, pumpkins! Everyone is encouraged to come in costume to enjoy the festivities. Jack-o-lanterns are provided by our community, so come to the Gardens to carve a free pumpkin on October 25, 26, or 27th that will be added to the pumpkin path. Or bring your own carved pumpkin(s) to the event! 

The Gardens will have glow sticks, hot chocolate, apple cider and s'more packs for the bonfire for sale. Come enjoy the evening!
