Unique birdhouses

made with recycled objects and Callaway harvest floral arrangements also

will be on display and for sale. Throughout the vegetable garden children

will enjoy seeing scarecrow scenes created from storybook themes. Families

will have a great time creating funny, whimsical scarecrows for a fee

of $1 per scarecrow. They will also get to take home their scarecrow's

head as a souvenir. In the Autumn Pot'em area, children will plant parsley

and take it home for nurturing. Families will also enjoy earning their

veggie detective badges as they explore the garden as part of the Vegetable

Garden scavenger hunt.

Everyone will

learn something new and fun at the Discovery Tables with displays including

a bee-keeping exhibit showcasing the unique honey-making skills of bees.

Additional tables will feature gourds, pumpkins, peppers and broomcorn.

Guests will take home great ideas for their jack-o-lantern from the pumpkin

decorating demonstrations. For those getting into the spirit of the season,

pumpkins will be available for purchase to take home and, at no additional

charge, guests can decorate them on site with a pattern provided or by

free hand.

Food themed

for the event will be available for sale, as well as the opportunity to

make and eat S'Mores.

Guests of all

ages will enjoy these activities from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Callaway is open

daily from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. This year Callaway celebrates 50 years of

providing "a place of beauty, relaxation, inspiration and a better

understanding of the living world" for millions of visitors. Callaway

is committed to its mission of environmental education and land stewardship

for the future.

Callaway is
