First I must clarify if you are a creepy street dweller no ill intent was meant, all are welcome here in any walk of life. We choose our paths whether it be creepy, streety or dwellerish it's no place of mine to judge but it may be quit the topic for conversation and a chuckle at times but then again what topic ain't.
...so back to the topic at hand, aw yes the pumpkin patch. I cannot remember a time I did not visit a pumpkin patch during the month of October. It feels like a Halloween betrayal if I didn't. Now I'm talking about a REAL pumpkin patch, not a freakin' parking lot with trucked in pumpkins. I mean apparently if you throw some hay on the ground they think you'll feel like your on a farm, seriously? The white lines and blacktop kinda bring you back to the parking lot reality. Now if you need your Halloween/pumpkin fix and it's near impossible to find a genuine patch I guess these will due on occassion, but lets hope for the best. I want pumpkins in all forms, perfectly orange and smooth to bumpy,cracked and just darn broken down,what a real farm has to offer. Dirt, rocks, things growing out of the ground. This is something every child and adult alike needs to experience in life, it brings on the Halloween spirit like nothing else (well candy corn helps too but we'll concentrate on the patch for now). Kids need dirt! Let them experience the joys of outdoor life, feel, smell, taste, all the good senses we were born with.
Ok, obviously you have the internet (or are really freaky and have some other way to read my blog) type in pumkin patch in (your area, remember to put state too who knows if your town name is in another state) and go for it!
My very favorite Pumpkin Patch is Lombardi Ranch http://www.lombardiranch.com/ in Santa Clarita, Ca. Very old school ranch been around forever. If you're in the area check it out, great for kids and adults.
This year was the first time visiting Tanaka Farms in Irvine, Ca. Not too shabby. Great selection and lots to do. Wear sunscreen and a hat.
Happy pumpkin hunting!
