Cheekwood Harvest

Celebrate fall in full color at Cheekwood Harvest, one of Nashville’s most beloved seasonal traditions. From mid-September through October, the gardens come alive with pumpkin houses, thousands of mums, and vibrant autumn displays. Wander through Pumpkin Village, where more than 75,000 pumpkins and three whimsical pumpkin houses create the ultimate fall photo backdrop. Families will love strolling the Scarecrow Trail, themed this year as “A Hint of Haunts.” The trail blends playful Halloween charm with creative scarecrows that bring the gardens to life—without being too spooky for little ones.
