With its selection of eclectic shops and charming restaurants, the fairytale-like Peddler’s Village beckons visitors all year round. Once autumn rolls around, however, the enchanting village becomes even more energizing. It offers a full slate of family-friendly activities and signals the return of the annual Scarecrows in the Village in Pennsylvania.
Scarecrows usually get overlooked during the spookiest season of the year – except at Peddler’s Village in New Hope, where the quirky creatures are the stars of the fall.
