DIY Scarecrow Decorating
10am - 4pm, or while supplies last

Clark Gardens will provide scarecrow filling for all that participate. There will be limited scarecrow clothing availability. It is recommended that participants bring their scarecrow's own clothing.

Consider making this scarecrow a family fall time favorite decoration... Clark Gardens Director, Carol Clark Montgomery, reminisces each fall season by bringing out her custom-made scarecrow. This scarecrow is made out of different clothing items from each of her children's childhood: a pair of her eldest son's pants, a shirt from the middle child, and jazzed up with a hat and mud boots from the youngest. What a fun way to keep some amazing memories in your everyday presence.

A $10 crafting fee applies per scarecrow.
