Event Series Event Series: Pumpkin Chunkin’

Pumpkin Chunkin’

November 2 @ 10:00 am - 5:00 pm

A Note from MaryO: While Great Country Farms may seem far, it’s not so bad.

The first time we went, we seemed to drive forever but he scenery was beautiful on the way and we ended up becoming members, going out there every Saturday with our middle-school son, my mom and our dog.  We kept that up through our son finishing high school.

Every weekend we would pick our fill of whatever was in season.  Fresh corn on the cob – yum.  We had giant baskets of produce delivered to our door along with recipes.  It was a great chance to learn about foods we were maybe not so familiar with.

Lots of baby animals, games and places for the kids to play.

Definitely worth checking out!

 

Bring your leftover jack-o-lantern to our smashin’ stations and let it fly! The Silo Drop and the Zip Wire Sploosh let you do the smashin’ yourself or bring your pumpkin to the Pumpkin Drop Zone and add it to our upside down “fireworks display” as the pumpkins are dropped from a 40ft lift. You will be sure to love giving your pumpkin one final ride. What happens to all those smashed pumpkins?… the pigs and cows love to eat them and we compost the rest.

Here’s your personal Invite to join us for Pumpkin Smashing from Farmer Drew!
