DescriptionChildren are especially lucky to be in Zeeland for this harvest celebration. The Pumpkin Festival starts with a Doo Dah Parade with an award for the best entry and the best, decorated bike and lots of children's games throughout the week-long celebration.
One highlight is a special wedding called a Match in the Patch. Children can participate in a wedding shower and a wedding all held in the patch in honor of Gert Gourd and Pete Pumpkin, the Pumpkin Bride and Groom.
