Have You Been to the Pumpkin Farm

After planning our annual family outing to our favorite pumpkin farm, we enjoyed a fun weekend of outdoor fun, great food, and pumpkin decorating.  We have leaned towards paints and stickers over carving the past couple of years.  Less mess and our pumpkins last longer.  That is if the squirrels don't snack on them when you put them on your porch as ours do.  (Does anyone have any tips on that?)  Check your local craft store for paints, brushes, and peel back stickers. A painted pumpkin with your address painted on is a cute address marker and looks festive.  Let out your most creative self and have fun.

Our family annual pumpkin patch Pearcefarms in Wisconsin where we climb the hay bales and run through the corn maze.  Did I mention they sell amazing apple cider donuts, banana bread, pumpkin bread, jams, jellies, and much more.

I found these fun stickers and paints on Amazon.

They are so festive on the fireplace mantel.

Guess which one I am! 

              

HAPPY WEEKEND!

Support your Local Farm Stand this Fall

The pumpkin harvest is bearing its fruit and they are rolling in to your local farm stands and pumpkin patches by the wagon full!  We have been waiting with great anticipation. Our family will soon be spending the day visiting Pearcefarms in Wisconsin where we have been going for the past 20 years since buying our home here. Its family owned and run and it's by far our favorite farm stand to visit.  I enjoy buying my produce there in the summer months, along with fresh donuts, jellies, jams, salsas and more. We all take part in the corn maze and climbing the tower of hay stacks to achieve the goal of saying you made it to the top!

 Do you have a favorite farm stand?  Enjoy the weekend with your family & friends and thanks for stopping by Lakehouselyn.
