Scarecrow Trail: Personify A Color
Scarecrows created by our community inhabit the Turner Seasons Garden. Is that a scarecrow or a “pigment” of your imagination? If that first pun wasn’t a tell “teal” sign, this year’s theme is all about the colors of the rainbow. Whether it’s floral or industrial, historical or fantastical, serious or “hue”-morous, we all have associations and connections with color. This year join us to witness the imaginative and wildly fun personification of a COLOR!
Weekends in the Beer Garden
Gather with friends and family in the stunning Beer Garden each weekend during Cheekwood Harvest. It’s the only beer garden in an actual garden in Nashville! Natural beauty and easy elegance define the space, where lively full-band sets are accompanied by seasonal libations and the city’s favorite food trucks. Grab a picnic table or bring a blanket, and kick back to enjoy a perfect autumn day amongst the pumpkins and chrysanthemums.
