Yes, my friends, that much-loved time of year has arrived when Cory and Elise Holman open their pumpkin patch at 12926 Center Road, about a half-mile north of Island View Road on the right.
They are now open, and as always, have a wide assortment of pumpkins, gourds, squash, cornstalks and other fall goodies. They will also have cider and doughnuts on the weekends. There is nothing like a pumpkin patch in October – especially Cory and Elise’s Pumpkin Patch!

It truly is a family affair, with several generations of the Holmans helping to set up and look after the patch. And this year, there is a brand new little pumpkin in the patch by the name of Henry, Cory and Elise’s new little baby. He is such a sweet little guy and very much has that Holman look!
The Holman farm has a very long history on the Old Mission Peninsula, which you can read more about here. I love that Cory and Elise are carrying on the tradition of farming on the Old Mission Peninsula.
If you have questions, feel free to call them at (231) 492-9019, and also check out their Facebook page here. And be sure and visit Garden Goods in Traverse City, which they acquired in 2021.
Here are a few photos of the crew this year, including Baby Pumpkin Henry.
