The Perfect Pumpkin
Thousands of orange pumpkins will be patiently waiting to go to their fall home beginning Labor Day Weekend! All pumpkins, squash and gourds picked from our fields will be brought up to sell around our retail barn through Oct. 31!
Giant Pumpkins
Looking for a really HUGE pumpkin? Yes, we grow and sell three different varieties that can frequently weigh well over 100-200 pounds. If you’re interested in one of these giant pumpkins, give us a call and we’ll be glad to tag one for you. – Due to the wet growing season, we do not have any extra large pumpkins this 2024 Fall Season.
Pumpkin Painting & Decorations
Pumpkins are not just for carving and for baking – they can also provide beautiful fall decoration in a fun and creative way. Each fall we transform hundreds of pumpkins of all varieties into Autumn décor such as centerpieces, focal points in a pumpkin/gourd display and even as a thoughtful gift. One of our many designers are available every day to help you transform that perfect pumpkin or gourd into something unexpected. The transformation can easily be done while you shop or as you’re enjoying the afternoon at the farm.
Pumpkin painting is another form of taking that perfect pumpkin to the next level. There are so many options to choose from – a name, favorite sports team, Fall/Halloween greeting, picture – the possibilities are endless! Let one of our many pumpkin painters help you or your child transform your favorite pumpkin into something special. — Painters available on weekends only — There will be NO Pumpkin Painters on Saturday, 10/4, Saturday, 10/19, or Saturday, 10/26 and Sunday, 10/27.

Rain
The Fall season can be a damp one. Even though it may be rainy at times in the morning, that afternoon and/or early evening can be perfect campfire weather. That is why we go ahead with most campfires even when the day starts with rain showers. Sometimes rain does continue for the entire day and those are the days that we encourage you to reschedule.
Perfect activity for kids!
Build Your Own Scarecrow
Come and build your own scarecrow and leave the mess with us! Each scarecrow can be personalized with its own shirt, pair of pants, and hat, which is included in the cost. Displaying your handmade scarecrow at your home is the perfect way to celebrate the Autumn season. Prefer a scarecrow on a smaller scale? How about a baby scarecrow!
