There's magic in the air.... Fairy pumpkin magic! Join in the fun of transforming pumpkins into magical houses!
Through your own creativity and hard work your once ordinary pumpkin will be transformed into delightful glowing fairy houses. Items to decorate the inside and outside will be supplied and include all nature items: twigs, acorns, milkweed pods and other items. Creators will take their masterpiece home in time for Halloween. Refreshments will be served, hot cider and cookies.
Bring Your Own Pumpkin, no larger than 12-14" round is ideal to carve and scoop out. Short, squat pumpkins work best. Keep it in the house the night before to warm up the inside so scooping it out is a more pleasant experience.
NOTE: An adult (parent or guardian) must be present for any participant 12-years-old and younger.
Who: Ages 5-105 year old
When: Saturday, Oct 26th from 1:00pm to 3:00pm

Meet The Instructor
Hello everyone! My name is Susie Poore. I’m an Amherst resident and a lifelong New Hampshire native. My background was largely in nonprofit research and development until I began working at PMEC as an Educator in 2023. This role has inspired my deep love of nature and outdoor education, eventually prompting me to switch career paths. Now, I’m grateful to wear many hats throughout the year - teaching assistant, educator, and camp director - and learn something new every day. I look forward to sharing my excitement for the outdoors with the Amherst community. In my free time, I enjoy hiking, playing lawn games, watching sports, and spending time with family.
