THE PUMPKIN GARDEN EXPERIENCE
The path starts from the choice of the pumpkin in pumpkin patch, the field that is home to many beautiful smooth-skinned orange pumpkins, streaked and ribbed, perfect for ornamental use.
The next step is participation in the creative lab (carving or painting, chosen when purchasing the ticket) to give free rein to your creativity.

The decorated pumpkin will make a great Halloween ornament!
