Pumpkin Trail
Kick off the holiday season with an enchanting walk through our glowing Pumpkin Trail! Each year, local families, community organizations, businesses, and individuals bring the historic grounds to life by painting, carving, and decorating pumpkins that illuminate the sidewalks surrounding the Monastery.
Enjoy an evening filled with local vendors, live music, family-friendly activities, and plenty of fall fun as you stroll through the beautifully lit trail. It’s a wonderful community tradition for all ages and a perfect way to celebrate the season together at historic 1884 Plaza.
