The great pumpkin search has finally concluded.
After many phone calls, drives, and asking around, Country Gardens once again comes in as by far simply the best.
Yes, there are pumpkin patches elsewhere that may offer a wider variety. But, all you need to do is ASK if you don’t see what you like at Country Gardens. They’ll find it.
As with last year, their service is simply impeccable. We’ll be heading there for flowers next spring.
I stopped in originally about a week ago, explained what I was looking for, and asking if he could acquire it. Not only did he come in with the best quote, he offered multiple ways of completing the order. When I called back, they called in a very specific order in with his growers, specifying the size we had discussed in quantity.
At the end of the day, I got the 50 ‘basketball’ sized I was shooting for and had enough left to buy a couple of the large ones at the same time.
Of course, that brings the “what was I thinking” moment…
Well. What I’m thinking? I’m hoping I’ll get some help.
(sorry, no phone numbers on the website. 😉 )
Plenty of child safe carving knives, and lots of hope to get some folks over for a good time and a little help. Figure I’ll have them all cleaned and ready, the kids just have to carve Friday and find theirs when they come trick or treat.
