Scarecrow Open House: Highlighting the 21st Annual Scarecrows in the Gardens Exhibition

📣 As a special treat, DABG will offer FREE ADMISSION as part of its Scarecrow Open House on Sunday, Oct 5th from 2 PM until closing at 6 PM. Visitors will be able to enjoy the scarecrows, walk the trails, and cast their vote for their favorite scarecrow. 🗳 This event will also feature an ice cream truck! 🍦🛻

In addition to being judged by an outside panel of judges, garden visitors can also vote on their favorite scarecrows during the first two weeks of the display, from Oct 1-15th. The “People’s Choice” winners will be announced Oct. 16th. 🏆

The 2025 Scarecrow theme is “All Things Music”. 🎶🥁🎹🎤🎸
All scarecrows will be suitable for viewing by children. Scarecrows will be whimsical, humorous, mischievous or loveable---NOT overly frightening. Scarecrows are designed by families, businesses, non-profits, church groups, schools, clubs and individuals.

📍 The Dothan Area Botanical Gardens is located at 5130 Headland Ave. in Dothan. The pet-friendly (must be on leash) facility is open from 9:00am-6pm seven days a week. All visitors to the Gardens to view the scarecrows will enter through the Botanical Center. Prior to 2 PM on Oct. 5, admission to the Gardens is $5.00 for adults, with free admission to Garden members and kids age 15 and younger. Annual garden memberships can be purchased in the Botanical Center or online at www.dabg.com.
