Pumpkin Patch opens Saturday, September 28th

It’s Fall, y’all and one of the rites of the season – Patty’s Pumpkin Patch –  is preparing to open – weather permitting – this Saturday, September 28th at Ponders’ Corner located at the corner of Tennille Avenue and Highway 84 in downtown Donalsonville. Once open, the annual fundraiser event, coordinated by Seminole County Family Connection, and the Friendship House of Jesus, will remain open through October 28th for you to stop by and pick out some colorful pumpkins for your Fall decor, and snap a photo with Patty, the patch’s favorite cow. Each pumpkin will be priced and there will be a secure money dropbox on site. 

The patch’s hours of operation will be Monday through Friday from 3:30 p.m. until 7 p.m., Saturday from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m., and Sundays from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.

Proceeds from the pumpkin patch benefit Family Connection and Friendship House of Jesus. For more information or to sign up, contact Seminole County Family Connection Coordinator Billie McLendon at 229-309-0531, or Friendship House of Jesus Director Justin Gravlee at 229-416-5920. 

Seminole County Family Connection and Friendship House of Jesus are excited to team together again this season to stage the annual Patty’s Pumpkin Patch. Each year both non-profit organizations work together to raise funds for programs that directly benefit and positively impact children in Seminole County.
