A Harvest Of Smiles Valley resident Maddy Watts was all smiles Sunday as she painted a perfect pumpkin during the Fall Harvest Festival, hosted by the Sawtooth Botanical Garden, south of Ketchum. The event, which attracted more than 300 people, offered a plethora of autumn produce, music, and kids' activities, including face painting, sack races, making pumpkin masks, and, of course, pumpkin painting.
