We live in a rural farm county in the Pacific Northwest, and every fall I love to visit one of a handful of local pumpkin patches. I’m not a big cook, so I don’t take advantage of their sugar pumpkins (although I dream that one day I might). But with the heralding of autumn leaves and kids running around in costumes, I feel the need to adorn my home with a few pumpkins and some pretty gourds.
Because my energy has been very low for a while, I wasn’t sure I was going to get over to a pumpkin patch this fall (hence the recent repost). But just the other day, after more than a week of rain and a few sunny days, Little Man and I visited a small patch. I love how the owners take pride in creating displays and making it attractive to families.
We came home with 2 larger pumpkins that adorn each side of our door and a handful of little decorative gourds that are sitting on my kitchen window sill.
Please enjoy this year’s pumpkin patch photos. And a favorite fall foliage shot.
Love your photos, Susan! Looks amazing. I missed a trip to Anderson Farms with the snowy weather and a family vacation, but I have a sugar pumpkin on the counter. 🙂
Thanks Susie!
Wow!
Great pictures, Susan. Bob
Thanks Bob!
These are beautiful pictures to gaze upon on a winter’s day in Niagara.
We’re expecting freezing rain and one heckuva storm later today so this post definitely hit the spot.
Thanks.
You’re most welcome! Hope you’re not left with too much of a skating rink for roads and sidewalks.
