September and October bring scarecrows of all personalities to the
Garden. Traditional, scary or just plain fun, they are all imaginative and
add a whimsical atmosphere. Trees take on a new look in the Enchanted Forest.
Hayrides on the weekends, the amazing sorghum maze and some
extra-special events make for a fall of fabulous family fun!
