SAVE THE DATE!
Mark your calendars and plan to join us for our annual Pumpkin Patch Fall Festival. We’ll have plenty of pumpkins, fun festival games, crafts and activities, scrumptious foods, family photo ops, meet the animals, and more! Outside exhibitors and vendors will also be on hand. Check back for more information as they book their spots.
Admission is FREE. Games and activities, concessions, pumpkins, etc. all have a cost. Pumpkin Passes (cards with mark off tickets) will be sold for cash or credit at ticket tents at the north and south ends of the park. They are good for games and activities and our own concession stands (popcorn, drinks, clementines, chips, etc.). The pumpkin sales tent and all outside food vendors will take cash or credit.
We’ll have tens of thousands of pounds of pumpkins this year, including heirloom varieties! But please note that we only sell pumpkins during our fall festival weekend, October 15 and 16.
Food Trucks Saturday & Sunday: Moon Rooster and Ashy Legs BBQ
Additional Food Options: New Orleans Style Sno-Balls, Firehouse Pizza, special lemonades from Fresh’n Juicy (with Lemonade Day), hot dogs and cotton candy from Camila’s Party Rental, plus popcorn, chips, Clementines, candy, water, juice, and soft drinks from our own ticket tent concessions.
Event Parking will be available on side streets in the neighborhood surrounding the park (see map here). Please be courteous to our neighbors and make sure that you allow plenty of space for them to come and go freely from their driveways. The Bellaire United Methodist parking lots at the SW and SE corners of Newcastle and Bellaire Blvd. will also be available to our guests all day Saturday and Sunday after services.
