Pick some pumpkins at this weekend's festival

The Coconut Grove Pumpkin Patch Festival is back October 5 and 6 at Peacock Park. Kick-off Fall in the Grove from 10 am to 6 pm both days.

The Festival will feature a variety of activities for the whole family, including a huge pumpkin patch in the center of all the action with more than 5,000 pumpkins to pick from. Prices for pumpkins range from $1-$15, depending on size.

Included in the entrance fee ($10 for Adults; $15 for Kids 12 and Under), are unlimited kids carnival rides, the kids hay maze, a dress-your-own scarecrow village, corn stalk maze, hay ride, and on-going shows & activities on our main stage. This is different than last year, where each event was a separate charge, now it's just one charge for all.

There is also the opportunity to decorate pumpkins right on-site ($5 per pumpkin), as well as the Pumpkin Food Court offering savory and sweet pumpkin delights such as pumpkin chili, pumpkin fritters, pumpkin ice cream, and delicious fair food, too. Plus, this year adults can enjoy a “cold one” in the Pumpkin Beer Garden!

Come out and make some family memories!
