Pumpkin Day At Bourne Farm

Description:
Rain or Shine.  

First held in 1981, this has become a much anticipated autumn event for hundreds of Falmouth families and visitors every year. With ample free parking, no entrance fee and many attractions for the children, Pumpkin Day offers something for everyone. Tickets are sold separately for some activities.

Coffee and pastries will be available in the morning. Lunch will be available, which will include hot dogs, hamburgers, clam chowder and refreshments. Bake sale table available for desserts.

Picking your own pumpkin is the main attraction. Other activities for families include horse-drawn hay rides, petting zoo, clowns, characters, crafts, balloons, face-painting, pony rides, canoe/kayak rides and a moon walk.

Salt Pond Areas Bird Sanctuaries, Inc., a non-profit, private conservation group, is dedicated to preserving and maintaining open wildlife habitat for the Town of Falmouth and owns approximately 220 acres of conservation land including Bourne Farm, The Knob in Quissett and Salt Pond in Falmouth, just to name a few. However, the cost of maintaining this open space for community enjoyment continues to grow. The budget to operate Bourne Farm is very costly and therefore we have this Pumpkin Day event as our main fundraiser every Columbus Day weekend.
