Pumpkin Patches in Eastern Connecticut
Submitted by Sherry Pardy on
Apparently, eight years old is the age where Halloween really begins to matter. In previous years, we settled for a rushed trip to the department store costume department and grabbed whatever fit from the disheveled, picked over displays. Decorations were minimal and the pumpkin never saw a knife. It did, however, see the outside of my front door for long, long after it was considered "fresh". This year? Not so much. My kids are ON the BALL. My children chose their costume choices (an obscure Minecraft character and a soccer fairy) in early September, and are expecting the full decoration treatment. They've even begun decorating their rooms. So, I'm guessing they're also anticipating the entire Halloween/Fall experience, which for me, includes a trip to the pumpkin patch, and lucky for us, (and you!) we've got lots of options to choose from in Eastern Connecticut!
