It’s that time of year again! Cory Holman’s Pumpkin Patch is now open, and they have a ton of pumpkins, gourds, squash, cornstalks and other fall goodies. And by “ton,” I mean at least a literal ton or two or three.
I stopped by there on Sunday and took a few pics of the Holman Crew bringing the pumpkins in (Thanks, Georgia, for alerting me!). Is there any happier place than a pumpkin patch? I think not.
Gage Warren helps bring in the pumpkins at Cory Holman’s Pumpkin Patch on the Old Mission Peninsula. I heard a rumor that he also ate a gourd. 🙂 | Jane Boursaw PhotoWaiting for the Great Pumpkin? Maybe!

The Holman farm has a very long history on the Old Mission Peninsula, which you can read more about here, and Cory and his wife Elise are carrying on the tradition of farming on the Old Mission Peninsula – which is so awesome. Here’s Elise at the pumpkin patch. She is such a sweetie!

From Northern Indiana, your wonderful writing and photography bring me closer to the area in spirit! While only 4 hours away, it feels so distant when not there. You offer comfort to those of us who want to stay connected to the area. Thanks for that and stay healthy!
That is a lot of pumpkins! So colorful and a lot of work. What a nice family.
