About this experience

EVENT DESCRIPTION
Enter our scarecrow contest: let your imagination take flight! Whether you’re entering as a family, a group of friends, or even as a solo artist, this is your chance to create a masterpiece that’s artistic, scary, or downright surprising.
Following good agricultural tradition, your scarecrow should be created around a wooden stake and be stuffed with plenty of straw. To enter, purchase your scarecrow starter kits (a wooden base and straw) at our Farm Shop for €15 from Monday, 30th September and return your creation by 17.00 on Saturday, 26th October. Judging will take place at our Monster Mash Disco in the Grain Store on Sunday 27th October. Winners will win either a Killruddery Gold Finch Membership or Killruddery Seasonal Breakfast Hamper to enjoy over Samhain.
This year’s judges include Killruddery Fionnuala Brabazon (Lady Ardee and Killruddery Creative Director), Farmer Tom Jenkinson and David Fortune (Me + The Moon) who will be judging with three categories in mind – Most Imaginative, Scariest and Best Made.
Scarecrows will be left on display until the 28th October, and participants may take their scarecrow home from 17.00 on the 27th October to decorate their homes. GOOD LUCK!
