Bloom Where You're Planted Farm

A family-owned educational farm & pumpkin patch near Avoca, Nebraska
(Avoca, Nebraska)

Week 3

We're heading into our third weekend of the Pumpkin Festival already!  This Sunday is Girl Scout/Boy Scout day.  Scouts wearing any part of their uniform will receive free admission to the farm. 

This afternoon we trecked out to the pumpkin fields and brought a fresh crop of orange pumpkins, squash, and gorgeous specialty pumpkins back to the barn.  The new varieties we tried this year are really cool!  The giant speckled swan gourds and colorful, warty gourds have been getting a lot of attention and selling really well. 

The trees are turning, and while many are still holding on to their leaves, there is a good layer on the ground to crunch through as you walk the grounds or stroll the nature trail.  Its a beautiful time to come for a visit, and we hope to see you soon at the farm!
