Return of the Pumpkin People 2015!

Fall 2015 is the 28th year of the "Return of the Pumpkin People"!

Although the event ended October 31st, 2015, the Pumpkin People are still standing proudly welcoming guests and showing off for photo ops!

Creating a Pumpkin People display is a time consuming process and requires a huge amount of artistic talent and carpentry skills!  

Depending upon the complexity of the project, host properties invest a giant amount of labor plus some displays demand a substantial outlay of cash!  When enjoying the funny, thought provoking and nostalgic displays please keep in mind that these masterpieces are a labor of love.  You might consider thanking the host properties for their efforts, which ALL of us get to enjoy!

This is a self-guided tour and you will be amazed at the beautiful scenery while traveling from one display to the next!  If you'd like to take a sneak peek at lots of great photos of this year's displays click here!

Return of the Pumpkin people is a self-guided tour where you use an official Return of Pumpkin People Map to find the properties who are official host properties. Be sure to look for the official logo identifying each host property. Maps and "People's Choice" ballots will be available at all participating properties. Maps can be printed off the front page of this website by September 15th. 

We would love to see your pictures posted at the Jackson Area Chamber of Commerce's Facebook page JacksonAreaCC.
