Peddler’s Village is holding their annual Scarecrow Festival (2019). Some amazing creations are scattered throughout the grounds.
The Scarecrow Festival is an annual festival event. This year (2019) it runs from Sept 9th through Oct 27th. There are a number of categories including a kid’s category. This year included a breast cancer awareness category.
Entries can be historical figures such as this characterization of Ben Franklin including his kite.
This is another Historical figure – Edgar Allen Poe.
I thought service was a little slow at this bakery stand. .. nevermind. Actually this entry was at the entrance to the Buttonwood Grill.
Many of the shops have their entries outside their business such as this one from the Chaddsford Winery.
The Addam’s Family Dollhouse included the characters from the TV show.
The Addams Family Dollhouse included one of my favorites, “Cousin It”
This was creative, in my opinion. It was a scarecrow made from bottles in the shape of a dream-catcher.
OK, two pumpkin head and a lamb on a Kubata tractor sitting on an upside down galvanized washtub. My girlfriend knew I’d run over as I love to check out tractors.
Nothing says ‘Scarecrow” like M and M’s Candy.
Two of the many entries about cancer awareness are below. The first is “Olivia Newton John”. At least that is what the sign said.
I guess I have a dirty mind. This one looks a little kinky. Normal people would probably see a scuba diver with a mask and weight belts.
My first thought on seeing this one was “What a Conehead”. That is what watching Saturday Night Live will do to your mind.
We also had an entry for a local Catholic girls’ High School, Villa Joseph Marie.
