The Children’s Garden at the Arboretum hosts an unforgettable Halloween event for the entire family.  A Haunted House featuring ghoulish creatures, costumed characters, face painting and sweet treats are just some of the friendly sites that Wagner Farm’s Brite Nites has to offer.

 

The highlight of the evening is lighted path through our pumpkin path.  This year we will display over 1,000 carved and lighted pumpkins!  The farm land illuminated by so many hand carved and crafted pumpkins and pumpkin sculptures is truly a sight that kids and adults of all ages will remember for a life time.

 

“Thanks to a volunteer staff of incredibly artistic people, this year we will feature designs and pumpkin sculptures that will astonish visitors of all ages,” said Carol Senff, Trustee and chair of fund raising at Wagner Farm.

 

Wagner Farm Arboretum is a non-profit organization devoted to preserving open space and providing a natural setting for community to visit.  The Giving Garden is organized and maintained entirely by volunteers who work with the local elementary schools to plant seeds, transplant seedlings, and harvest and deliver produce to food banks and other organizations serving those in need in our county.

The Giving Garden has donated 10,000 pounds of produce this season.  All proceeds from Brite Nites will be used to expand the Arboretum’s gardens and expand educational programs related to gardening and preserving nature.

 

Tickets are sold by the half hour increments for Oct. 19-21 and Oct. 26-28; between the hours of 7 and 8:30pm.  Tickets may be purchased in advance on-line at wfafnj.org or at the office location 197 Mountain Ave, Warren NJ.  Any tickets purchased in advance are: $10 for Adults and $7 for Children or Seniors. Included in the price of admission is admittance to the lighted pumpkin path and the haunted showcase.

 

Strollers and pets are not permitted.  Advanced ticket purchase is recommended although tickets will also be sold at the gate if space permits for an additional $2 per ticket. Parking is provided on site for no charge.
