PARK CITY, Utah — The annual Scarecrow Festival returned to McPolin Farm on Saturday, October 5.
The event, set against the rustic backdrop of McPolin Barn, drew families and locals alike. Attendees took part in face and pumpkin painting, autumn treats, and built their own scarecrow to be displayed along the farm’s scenic trail.
The scarecrows will be on display until 10/28. A walk along the paved recreation path near the McPolin Barn is a fun and festive fall activity suitable for all ages and abilities.
