St. Augustine's hosts "The Great Pumpkin Patch" every October featuring thousands of pumpkins and gourds in a myriad of sizes and colors.
The pumpkin patch sells pumpkins, gourds, jewelry, crafts, and home-baked goods like pumpkin bread and cookies made by St. Augustine's church members and friends. And it's almost time -- the pumpkins are coming soon! This year's first pumpkin delivery is scheduled for September 26 at 5:00 PM. Barring delays, the patch will open Sept 27. The patch is open from 12 PM (noon) to 8 PM on weekdays and 9 AM to 8 PM on weekends, through the end of October. There is no entrance fee -- all are welcome to come, explore, and take photos. Pumpkins are priced individually by size.
All are also invited to join us on October 21 from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM for Pumpkin-Palooza, our mini-festival for children of all ages!

The success of the pumpkin patch is dependent on the dedication of our volunteers and provides critical funding for St. Augustine's Church.
Adult volunteers are welcomed as are students needing service hours. Volunteers are needed to work at the patch throughout October, and to help with unloading when pumpkins arrive at the patch. Unloading requires as many extra helpers as possible so come and bring a friend or two! We begin around 5:00 pm and end with hotdogs and Andre’s famous, homemade chili in the parish hall.
