Our story

Nearly 100 years on the same soil.

Our family has farmed this land for generations, growing pumpkins, horseradish and corn. About 45 years ago we started selling pumpkins straight off the wagons. That simple idea grew into a fall festival, and now kids who came for pumpkins bring their own families back.
