Grove Pumpkin Patch back this weekend

The Coconut Grove Pumpkin Patch is this weekend, Saturday and Sunday, October 4 and 5, open from 10 am to 6 pm both days.

There will be over 5000 pumpkins and lots of other great family-friendly things to do. There's a kids Hay Maze, Dress Your Scarecrow, kiddie carnival rides, shows and activities, a petting zoo, a decorate your pumpkin tent, and my favorite, a pumpkin food court and a pumpkin beer garden.

Some of the pumpkin foods include pumpkin pies of course and funnel cake, quiche, crepes, curry shish-kabobs and so much more, all featuring pumpkin.

There are all the regular fair favorites too, from gyros to chicken, etc. These are not-pumpkin related.

The pumpkins range from $1.00 to $15.00, depending on size. The decorating station is just $5.00 per pumpkin.

Entrance fee is $10 for general admission and $15 for kids; babies under 24 months are free.

The entrance fee includes unlimited rides for kids, the kids hay bale maze, all shows and activities, dress-your-own scarecrow village, hillbilly hay ride and the petting zoo.

Get your tix here or at the gate.

Entrance fee includes unlimited kiddie carnival rides for paid children. 

Great news is that Paradise Parking and the Coconut Grove Bank are offering $6 parking for the Pumpkin Patch attendees. The lot is just a few blocks away on Mary and Tigertail, It's $6 for the whole day.
