Cabbagetown Pumpkin Walk, 2018
Bring your pumpkins! The traditions of "pumpkin walks" started in Sorauren Park in Toronto and we're proud to host one in Cabbagetown for the sixth year in a row in Riverdale Park West. The jack o'lanterns (and a few uncarved pumpkins and squashs, too) arrive from all over the neighbourhood and line up for a final, glorious viewing before being put in a city-provided compost bin. It's a great evening to visit with neighbours and admire everyone's handiwork.
