Out & About: Pumpkin Patches


top image
It's bound to be an adventure when you head out into the fields of a local farm to pick the favorite fruit (yes, fruit) of Fall! 

Between now and October 31st, families everywhere will seek out the perfect pumpkin, scoop its guts and carve it, light it and enjoy it, and then watch it decompose (my favorite part).  Since you don't want to miss out on that tradition, Macaroni Kid has compiled a list of local pumpkin-picking-places! (Say that three times fast!)

So charge up that camera, grab the rubber boots, and get ready for some great pumpkin pickin'!
