Scarecrow Field Sign up Sheet

Murray Family Farms invites you to be a part of our first annual Scarecrow Field by building a scarecrow to be displayed all month long at our annual Pumpkin Patch event. 

Encourage your class to gather supplies to make a scarecrow to remember. Get everyone involved and see what they come up with!

Do you choose a theme? Do you use a teacher or principal as inspiration? Do you use a pop culture figure as inspiration? Do you go traditional?

Some suggested materials to look for are: Pants, Shirt, Hat, Gloves, a Head, Accessories, Stuffing (hay/straw, cotton, pillows, clothes).

  • Each submission will receive one scarecrow frame.

    • If you have more than one teacher/class wanting to participate, please submit separate requests.
