Pumpkin Festival
Blue Grass Nursery and Garden Centre is hosting our 14th annual Pumpkin Festival on Sunday October 8th from 11am – 3pm. This huge free family focused event is in support of the Alberta Children’s Hospital Foundation. Over the past 13 years we have raised a combined total of over $225,000 and had attendance of over 5500 people each year. Our goal this year is to raise $45,000 through donations and proceeds from the event for the Alberta Children’s Hospital Foundation. We are looking for any media coverage that you may be able to provide. We are able to do live studio interviews, live on location before or during the event, great photo opportunities and much more.
Please take a moment to view the attached video of our pumpkin drop, the grand finale of pumpkin fest. There is also a flyer attached for this year’s event if you, your family or friends are interested in coming. We would really appreciate any promotional coverage that you can offer to inform the public prior to the event as well as any on site coverage the day of the event. In the past we have done interviews with our giant pumpkins (500+ lbs) in tow at your location or ours.
Please don’t hesitate to contact me for further information or to arrange an interview. We are looking forward to your support of this worthwhile family event raising awareness and monies for the Alberta Children’s Hospital.
