Fall Festivities at Cambria Nursery: Pumpkin Patches, Scarecrows & Family Fun

Sep 17, 2025 | Events, Fall | 0 comments

As the leaves turn golden and the coastal air carries a crisp new energy, fall transforms Cambria into a harvest-season wonderland. At Cambria Nursery, we love celebrating everything autumn – from pumpkins and scarecrows to workshops and seasonal décor. This year’s lineup is brimming with festive family fun, local charm, and creative inspiration!

Here’s what’s happening this fall in and around the Nursery:

The Pumpkin Patch at Cambria Nursery

Pumpkin season is officially here, and our very own Pumpkin Patch is back and better than ever! Wander through displays of pumpkins big and small, perfect for decorating your porch and carving with the kids.

We’ve curated a beautiful display of pumpkins nestled among our gardens and pathways. It’s a wonderful photo op for families, friends, or anyone who just loves the cozy vibe of fall. Don’t forget to visit the goats while you’re here – Rosemary and Sage are always happy to see new faces.

The Cambria Scarecrow Festival

One of Cambria’s most beloved traditions, the Cambria Scarecrow Festival, runs throughout the month of October, and Cambria Nursery is proud to be part of it!

Stop by to see our scarecrow display and enjoy a walk through our gardens, where autumn blooms, cozy décor, and a touch of Halloween whimsy come together in full festive spirit. Then head into town to see dozens of creative scarecrows popping up in front of shops, restaurants, and landmarks. It’s a local celebration of creativity and community you don’t want to miss. 

The festival has gained national attention over the years, being featured in media outlets such as the Los Angeles Times, and more. It’s also been named one of USA Today’s top 10 autumn festivals and is highlighted by The Travel Channel as one of the top scarecrow festivals in the U.S. and Canada.
