Get ready for a weekend of fall fun that also gives back! Join us October 11–12 from 12–4 PM for our very first Pumpkin Magic Fest, a celebration of pumpkins, play, and everything we love about autumn.

From live music Kyla P and the Revolving door, a haybale maze, corn pit, and life-sized lawn games, to photo ops and free apple cider donut samples, your admission includes a full lineup of seasonal fun. Even more magic awaits with face painting, ice cream, and our Crystal Quest gem-mining experience available for purchase. And of course, no fall festival is complete without pumpkins of every size and the cutest seasonal décor to take home. 🎃

Here’s the best part: a portion of every dollar spent and activity goes directly to Lucky Dog Refuge, a non-profit close to our hearts and the place that gave us Reishi, Frankie, and our shop cats. By joining us, you’re not just celebrating fall, you’re helping provide care, love, and second chances to animals in need. 🐾💛
