The Sinkland Farms Pumpkin Festival in Christiansburg has grown from a small family fundraiser into one of the region’s most beloved seasonal events. Featuring a pumpkin patch, hayrides, live music, and activities for all ages, the festival continues to draw thousands of visitors each year. What began as a way for Susan Sink and her family to support their farm has become a fall tradition for the New River Valley.
