See Pumpkin Mythical Creatures In Oklahoma City This Fall

One of the best things about fall in Oklahoma is pumpkin patches! And one of the most creative pumpkin experiences is Pumpkinville at the Myriad Botanical Gardens in Oklahoma City.

Pumpkinville is one of the biggest annual festivals at Myriad Botanical Gardens where people can "explore creative displays made from over 30,000 pumpkins, gourds, haystacks, and mums." Plus, the festival includes fall games, pumpkin painting, photo ops, local vendors, educational programs, free crafts, face painting, fall treats and free rides on Mo's Carousel.

This year's theme is Mythical Creatures and will bring "to life a magical world of legendary beings." Pumpkinville is hosted by Myriad Botanical Gardens, presented by OG&E and sponsored by Devon Energy and Tinker Federal Credit Union.
