The village is buzzing. The air smells like fall. Families gather for the parade, familiar faces stop for a chat, and the streets fill with the kind of small-town magic that makes Wellington feel like home.
And today, we get to celebrate it all together one more time.
Pumpkinfest is here, and it’s the perfect way to spend an autumn day in the County. Start your morning at the Wellington Community Market, where more than 60 vendors will be bringing local goods, handmade treasures, delicious food, and plenty of things to discover. Enjoy live music from Ron Nicholas and Kelly Reid as you wander, shop, and soak up the atmosphere.
Then, keep the fun going throughout the village. Watch the Pumpkinfest Parade at 10:30 am, visit the Kids’ Zone, browse the craft show and library book sale, enjoy pie by the slice at Wellington United Church, and catch the giant pumpkin weigh-off at noon. There’s plenty more happening all around town, too.
There’s just one more thing that makes this Saturday extra special.
It’s our last weekly market of the season.
After a summer and fall filled with fresh harvests, handmade finds, familiar faces, and Saturday mornings spent together, we’d love to finish the season with you.
So bring your family, gather your friends, wear your pumpkin hat, and make a day of it in Wellington. Find one more treasure, enjoy one more market treat, and take in one more beautiful autumn morning with us.
Thank you for making this market season so special. We’re grateful to every farmer, maker, baker, artisan, vendor, volunteer, and visitor who has been part of it.
Let’s make this final Saturday one to remember.
