Description
Grab your flannel and let’s get crafty with a touch of cornstalk charm—it's time to build your very own scarecrow from head to toe! You’re invited to our Scarecrow Making Workshop, held at the Escape to Buckeye Lake Welcome Center in Buckeye Lake, Ohio. Whether you're into classic country charm or scarecrow-chic, you’ll create a one-of-a-kind fall decoration perfect for your porch, garden, or to display in your yard.
Tickets for this special workshop are just $15 plus service fees.
About the Trail of Scarecrows
This fall, we're inviting communities across Fairfield County and the Buckeye Lake Region to celebrate a huge milestone birthday with this year’s Trail of Scarecrows theme: America 250! Through creative, patriotic scarecrow displays, our scarecrows will be popping up across the county to honor everything we love about the USA.
To help you get in on the fun, we’re kicking things off with a hands-on workshop where you can build your very own scarecrow—just in time to join the trail or decorate your front porch.
You’ll get everything you need to build your own life-size scarecrow, including framing materials and stuffing. Please bring your own wardrobe items like clothing, hats, shoes, scarves, or any other accessories.
🎟️ Space is limited, so don’t delay!
Tickets must be purchased by Monday, August 24th, via the ticket link. Space is limited to only 20 participants. This is an outdoor experience, so should there be inclement weather the event will be rescheduled to Tuesday, September 1st. Because sharp tools and following intricate directions will be involved, we kindly ask that participants be age 9 or older. Finished scarecrows can go home with you the same night, or you can proudly display your creations during the Millersport Sweet Corn Festival in front of the Post Office in Heritage Park!
Can't attend this workshop? Attend our Scarecrow Building Workshop at Howell Park in Bremen, Ohio on Wednesday, September 23rd! Learn more about the Trail of Scarecrows and how you can get involved on Visit Fairfield County's website.
We can’t wait to see your creativity and craftsmanship come to life on Wednesday, August 26th!
