What better way to kick off the season than with a scarecrow contest? Register your family (it’s free) to participate in the Ridgeland Scarecrow Trail taking place at the Ridgeland Wildflower Field & Art Park on October 1 through November 26. Display your scarecrow among the beautiful fall landscape and festive pumpkins. This is a great spot for a family photo. Be sure to get creative, judges will choose their favorite to win a prize giveaway. Most importantly, create family fun memories to last! Sponsored by Visit Ridgeland and Keep Ridgeland Beautiful.
