Wagner Farm Arboretum Brite Nites 2020
If it’s Fall, then it must be time for Warren’s coolest pumpkin event! Returning for an 9th year, it’s Wagner Farm Arboretum’s spectacular Halloween-themed event “Brite Nites” which showcases an elaborate display of intricately and creatively hand-carved and lighted pumpkins. This year we are going contactless and bringing the displays to your vehicle by making the Pumpkin Path a drive-thru event. Instead of meandering through the Children’s Garden path you will be driving by the breath-taking pumpkin sculptures, where the young and younger will be astounded by their complexity and originality. New this year will be a tribute to our first responders and medical heroes. The whole family is sure to be entertained while supporting a local organization, from the safety and comfort of your own car. With your help, we can continue to build out the vision of a world-class arboretum, right here in town.
About Wagner Farm Arboretum: Established in 2004 as a non-profit organization, the Arboretum seeks to enrich, educate and inspire the community by increasing environmental awareness and natural recreational opportunities. Our programs include the Giving Project where volunteers sow, plant, grow, weed and harvest over 10,000 lbs of fresh produce, in the Giving Garden, the Coddington Plots and the Rutgers Cooperative Extension Farms, to donate to local food pantries. Our Growing to Give program is a staple at the area elementary schools. Last but not least is the one acre Community Garden where area gardeners can try their hand at growing their own produce.
