A Huge Thank You to Volunteers!

On behalf of the entire staff of Denver Botanic Gardens we want to thank all our Pumpkin Festival volunteers for the time, energy, and incredible enthusiasm you contributed to the 21st Annual Pumpkin Festival. The weather was amazing and so were you!

Pumkin Festival Volunteer

The beautiful fall weather brought a record number 27,000+ guests to search for pumpkins in the pumpkin patch, and you were there, doing everything in your power to ensure that each guest had a fantastic experience. As an important fundraiser for Denver Botanic Gardens, the Pumpkin Festival would not have been possible without you, and we really appreciate your continued help and support. We look forward to seeing you again at the next Pumpkin Festival or at other volunteer events during the year.

Beautiful, Sunny, and Temperatures in the 70’s!
