We’re on PBS!
We’re thrilled to share that Celebrate Highwood’s Pumpkin Fest was featured in a special episode of "America the Bountiful," PBS’s documentary-style series celebrating the people, places, and traditions that shape American culture.
In Season 2, Episode 210: “Pumpkins in Illinois”, host Capri Cafaro takes viewers behind the scenes of our beloved fall festival, capturing the creativity, community spirit, and festive fun that make Pumpkin Fest one of Highwood’s proudest traditions 🎃
The full episode is available to stream now:
