A Quick Note on Our Pumpkins: Made for Baking & Fall Décor

Our pumpkin patch features specialty heirloom, sugar pie, and decorative tabletop varieties ($2–$10 each). We don't grow large carving jack-o'-lanterns — instead, our pumpkins are prized for exceptional pie making, dense sweet flesh, and elegant autumn porch and table displays.
