Weekday groups receive a 30 minute educational presentation by Charisse about pumpkins and their stages of growth, from preparing the soil, planting the seeds, bees pollinating the blooms, and how we care for our pumpkins as they grow. Charisse is a former elementary teacher who loves working with children, so for returning groups you'll know to expect another wonderful presentation! After the presentation the children will tour the patch and get to choose from a wide variety of pie pumpkins, gourds or mini-pumpkins to take home and show to their parents. To finish the tour, they can go through our straw bale maze and play on our playground. Groups are also welcome to bring snacks or a sack lunch to eat after the field trip. Pricing is only $3 per child!
