  • Share:
Name: 40th Annual Pumpkin Festival and Costume Competition
Date: October 26, 2024
Time: 8:30 AM - 10:30 AM PDT
Event Description:
The Healdsburg Farmers’ Market’s 40th annual Pumpkin Festival combines carving skills, pumpkin decorating/racing
abilities, and a costume contest to win market bucks and great prizes donated by local businesses.
Multiple competitions at this event give festival goers an opportunity to let their creativity shine and win great prizes.
The traditional pumpkin “car” race requires entrants to decorate a small pumpkin, insert wheels into it, so it can be
raced down the market track. Prizes are given for decoration, and market bucks are won by race heat winners.
Another competition revolves around pumpkin carving. Participants can carve on site, with pumpkins provided by the
market, or they can bring a pumpkin they carved from home.
A third event is a costume contest. No pre made costumes or kits allowed.
Market customers are the judges. Every visitor is given the opportunity to vote for their favorites.
Prizes are donated by a host of local businesses, including Shelton’s Natural Foods, Pizzando/Spoonbar, Noble Folk Ice
Cream and Pies, Copperfield Books, Toy Chest, Costeaux Bakery, as well as the market itself, which gives out lots of
“market bucks,”: good at any vendor’s booth.
