U-Pick Pumpkins

Ever wanted to pick pumpkins in a pumpkin patch? Sept. 23, 30 and Oct. 1 2023 you can pick the perfect pumpkin in the patch. There will also be pre-picked pumpkins, garlic, and veggies for sale.

There will be lots of photo opportunities: a corn "room", a teeny tiny corn trail, the 67 blue truck loaded with pumpkins, a giant pumpkin or 2, and more.

Location: Across from the Mennonite Heritage Museum. Note: I have 2 gardens, a north and south, this is happening in the south garden. To get to my north garden you go north of Double R and to get to my south garden you go south of Double R.

Dates: September 23, 30 and Oct. 1 2023 from 11 am to 5 pm. Rain or shine!

Tips:

If you have a wagon, or wheelbarrow you may want to bring it. The patch is big and some pumpkins are massive!
There are no bathrooms at the patch. The closest is the Mennonite Heritage Museum or McDonald's.
Pumpkin leaves and stems are prickly. To have an enjoyable time long pants and closed toe shoes or boots are suggested. If you have gardening gloves you may want to bring them to protect your hands.
Be cautious when walking in the patch, the ground is uneven.
Pumpkin stems are fragile, please pick up pumpkins from the bottom.
Will pumpkins keep til October? Yes, if you follow these tips: storage tips.
