There is a beautiful October weekend on tap and it’s Pumpkin Time! We have the Stand fully stocked with a huge variety of pumpkin sizes, shapes and colors; plus a wide array of gourds, mini pumpkins, straw bales (large & mini), corn stalks, corn bunches, and large beautiful mums.

If you prefer a grander fun, family Fall adventure, you are invited into the pumpkin patch to search for your own pumpkin perfection. After filling your wagon, take a few extra moments for photos in the field with your finds. Saunter back to the Stand area and enjoy some family time at the playground & small house and/or play the various pumpkin games, including Pumpkin Putt-Putt (bowl a pumpkin through the 9-hole mini golf course), Ring Toss and Skee-Pumpkin.

The Giant Pumpkin has arrived at the farm. How big is it this year? Guess! Stop by the stand a submit your guesses, $1 each. The Winner will receive a Family Pass to the Pumpkin Olympics on November 9, 11am – 4pm, when the Giant will be dropped on a car!

A big “Thank You” to Ken Redcay who grew the Giant Pumpkin and donated it to the Pumpkin Olympics, a community charity event. It’s a smashin’ good time for the whole family.

I’m thankful for pumpkins, my family, and great workers this season. I find joy in picking pumpkins and gourds… discovering what beauty is beneath the next leaf. I give thanks to my Heavenly Father for his creativity, and marvel in his goodness and grace. what are YOU thankful for on this beautiful day?

The pumpkin stand is open Monday-Saturday, 9:00am-6:30pm and Sunday noon – 5:00pm. Bring your family on a pumpkiny adventure and spend some quality time playing and searching among over 50 varieties of pumpkins for the perfect sizes, shapes and colors for your home.

The Strawberry Stand will be open Friday @ 8am. PYO fields are closed for the season, so only pre-picked will be available. This is possibly the last day… we will let you know if there are berries available next week.

Due to the storage of strawberries, on Saturday we will open at 8am and close around noon, or whenever the berries run out.

Strawberry farms around the region are experiencing a good first set of berries, and then the season quickly ends. That’s what we are also experiencing. Too much rain last Fall and this Spring has resulted in loss of plants, and weakened roots and plant systems. Therefore, the volume of good strawberries is greatly reduced in our area.
