Fall is in the air, and that means it’s time for the Scarecrow Festival — our most delightful seasonal celebration at the Pioneer Florida Museum & Village! Join us for a full day of autumn fun in a charming historic setting. Build your very own scarecrow, pick the perfect pumpkin from our festive patch, and let the kids unleash their creativity with pumpkin painting and make-and-take arts and crafts.

Meet fascinating creatures at Pharaoh’s Wild Pharaohs Wildlife Kingdom and get up close with friendly farm animals at the ZHS FFA Petting Zoo. Enjoy classic children’s games with prizes, live entertainment, a variety of food and drinks, and unique local vendors. Watch traditional craft demonstrations, including a working blacksmith, and take a ride on the model trains. Best of all, every historic building on the museum grounds will be open for you to explore.
