About the event

The Pumpkin Glow 2025
Green Earth's Pumpkin Glow is back! We're excited to once again host this magical nighttime hike. Stroll through the woods to view over 750 jack-o-lanterns and witness the ethereal beauty that is this region's original Pumpkin Glow.

The Glow Trail will be delighting visitors for three nights—Thursday 10/16, Friday 10/17, and Saturday 10/18, 5:30-9:30pm nightly. Concessions, live music, and hayrides are all part of the fun.

The Pumpkin Glow is a family-friendly event, with no jump scares to upset your little ones. This woodland trail is well-groomed and offers firm, flat footing which can accommodate strollers. Walker and wheelchair users are welcome but need to feel comfortable on natural terrain with small elevation changes. While leashed dogs are normally welcome on our trails, we ask you leave your pets at home during this event.

Admission: Children 17 & under are free. Adults $7 suggested donation, but no one is turned away.
Free parking is accessible from Oakland and Ready Mix Roads, and fee hayrides from the parking lots are available.
Proceeds benefit Green Earth of Carbondale.

Please Note: Green Earth is NOT seeking vendors. Disregard any posts or messages you may see regarding registering as a vendor. These are scammers attempting to separate you from your money (Booo!).
