The Pumpkin Pacer is a fun 5k trail run/walk/hike through scenic Wrentham conservation land and White Barn Farm property and is the final race in the Farm to Table 5K Series ! It is open to all ages and skill levels. The Pumpkin Pacer rolls around just in time to celebrate the year's bounty. All of the long, hot days in the field culminating into the rewards of the harvest. Participants are sure to be met by a quintessential New England collage of color and refreshingly crisp autumn air!
