Fall Fun

by Angel Milbert

Fall is right around the corner, you know what that means… back to school, Friday night football games, and most importantly fall activities. If you’re bored this fall season, take a trip to your local pumpkin patch. Pumpkin patches are an amazing way to get your family together whether it be for family pictures or just to find some fall decoration, it’s a great way to spend time with each other. 

Get to that pumpkin patch and pick out your favorite pumpkin. Use it as a decoration until Halloween rolls around and then you can carve your pumpkin and make it a Halloween decoration. Use your pumpkin to make the most delicious fall inspired treats. Pumpkin rolls, cooked pumpkin seeds, pumpkin bread, and so much more! Fall into the season with a quick trip to a pumpkin patch.
