Story

12th Annual Pumpkin Smash & Food Drive!

Saturday, November 7, 2026 | 10 AM–2 PM | Glover Nursery

Smash pumpkins, play games, win prizes, enjoy some treats, and help feed Utah families! It's one of our favorite days of the year, and you're invited!

Join us for our 12th Annual Pumpkin Smash & Food Drive! What started as a fun way to keep the Halloween festivities going has grown into a wonderful community tradition, bringing families and neighbors together for an afternoon of fall fun, laughter, and giving back.

Here's What's in Store!

Bring your jack-o'-lanterns and get ready for an afternoon packed with fun:

🎤 Karaoke for All Ages (thanks to Flipside Fun & DJ Jason!)

🎳 Pumpkin Bowling

🎯 Pumpkin Skeeball

⛳ Mini Golf

🌽 Maze

🔎 Scavenger Hunt

🍩 Donuts & sweet rolls available for purchase

🎁 Raffles, gift cards, plants, toys & more!

Big prizes for both kids and adults! There's something for everyone, whether you're ready to grab the mic, test your aim, explore the maze, or try your luck in the raffle.

No Pumpkin? No Problem! Schmidt's Farm & Greenhouse has generously donated pumpkins so everyone can join in the smashing fun! Be sure to visit their Redwood Road location for even more fall activities.

Bigger Fun, Bigger Community! This year, we're teaming up with the West Jordan Chamber of Commerce to bring even more local businesses and community members into the fun. We're excited to make this our biggest Pumpkin Smash yet!

Here's something worth getting excited about: Glover Nursery is matching every dollar donated, dollar for dollar, up to $5,000! That means your generosity goes twice as far, helping provide food for Utahns facing food insecurity as the holiday season approaches.

Here's how you can help:

- Bring a cash donation or non-perishable canned and packaged food.

- Donate online via this page and show your receipt at our check-in desk for event entry.

- Bring your family and friends, join the fun, and spread the word!

Come for the pumpkin smashing. Stay for the fun. Give back to your community.

We can't wait to celebrate with you! Let's smash some pumpkins, have a little fun, and make a BIG difference together!

See you November 7th!
