Milford Pumpkin Stroll 2023: Trick-Or-Treating, Prizes

MILFORD, MA — Milford's annual Pumpkin Stroll returns this pre-Halloween weekend, with trick-or-treating and prizes available to local carvers for their most gourd-geous creations.

The annual Halloween tradition will be centered around the First UU Church, 23 Pine St., in the downtown area. Residents can bring carved pumpkins to the church between 5 and 5:30 p.m. After the drop-off time, the church will open for trick-or-treating with all the carvings on display.

Local businesses will be manning tables with free treats. A DJ will supply music.

The event will conclude with prizes at 7:30 p.m. going to the three scariest, funniest and most creative pumpkins. Each winner will get a $25 gift card, and will get to take their pumpkins home.

The Pumpkin Stroll is free, but organizers are asking for donations of either Walmart or Target gift cards for Foster Care Essentials, which will use the cards to buy winter jackets for local children in foster care.
