Pumpkins sit on stands priced based on size. However, the biggest gains are in the human connections. “I love the time we get as a family, including picking out the different varieties we will plant, planting in the fields all together, going out to the patch over the summer months to see the growth, working in the fields to pick the pumpkins, and interacting with the community when they come out to the farm,” Kristen Mertens said.
