Pumpkins are Fun!
Pumpkins are fun. They're fun just by their very
nature. They're big. They're round. They're orange. What could be
more fun? A banana? I don't think so. No one has made a house out
of a banana. A zucchini? Zucchinis have potential, but no one roasts
zucchini seeds. A radish? Pah-lease. They're good as little flowers
on a plate, but no one has made a stew in them, Ho about a kohl
rabi? They're tasty but no one has written a poem about "Peter,
Peter the kohl rabi eater." No. Pumpkins are potentially, positively,
and permanently fun!

For the past few autumn seasons...
|
For the past couple autumn seasons, we've hosted a weekend
long Pumpkin Harvest Celebration. Due to the wonderful response,
this year we've extended the festival to three weekends.
The festival offers plenty of old fashion fun and always new
activities and surprises. Check the coupon
page of the website for some terrific deals.

|
If you work up a hearty appetite wandering the pathways
in the giant maze, enjoy a light lunch fare of grilled hotdog,
vegetarian soup in 2009, chips & pumpkin sipper cup, for kids,
a pint of cider for adults. There are always healthy snack
packages, beverages, and deserts to complete your meal.
|
|
Remember to take home a country gift item or two, homemade
jam and apple butter, along with a car full of fall decorations
to celebrate the season. Add a touch of country joy to
your home with bundles of cornstalks, interesting colorful gourds
and straw bales to lend a festive spirit to your neighborhood.
