Preparing for the pumpkins outside of Jesse Lee Church!

The wood pallets have arrived which means...the pumpkins can't be far behind!

It's a seasonal rite of passage and a beloved Ridgefield tradition - picking pumpkins at the Jesse Lee Pumpkin Patch. Many hands make light work. Each October, volunteers form an assembly line and place many, many pumpkins inside the patch. 

So, if the season of fall is beckoning you to purchase the perfect pumpkin, hold off just a few days and shop local! When you purchase an orange beauty from  Jesse Lee, your pumpkin purchase benefits both the church outreach mission and the Native American pumpkin growers from Arizona.

Jesse Lee United Methodist Church is located at 207 Main Street, Ridgefield.
