You can carve it to use for decoration or you can cook it and eat it.</p><p>While you can go to a local grocery store and purchase a pumpkin, part of the fun is heading to a farm or patch to find your very own. Florida has a rash of farms and other sites where you can do that, often at no cost (except to buy the pumpkin).</p><p>A few tips: Look for an orange-colored pumpkin. Partially green pumpkins might not ripen anymore. When it comes to size, medium pumpkins tend to be best for carving, while smaller ones are better for cooking.</p><p>With that in mind, these are the times (Halloween nearly here) when you think about more than just goblins and ghosts. Let's get into the top pumpkin-picking spots in Florida.</p><h3>Painted Oaks Academy, Orlando, FL</h3><br/><p>This is one place to be if you want more than pumpkins. Painted Oaks' yearly festival includes pumpkins and ponies. There are hay rides, food, music, petting zoo and local vendors. And also, of course, pony rides. The story of how this all came about is worth retelling. David Ottersen was a long-time horse-lover as well as his wife, Lisa Hall. Ottersen worked as a realtor/mortgage broker. By chance, he came across an equestrian center for sale. He immediately drove the 10 miles to the site. He decided impulsively to buy it. Lisa also immediately fell in love with it. They changed careers. You might say they couldn't say "neigh." They have operated it as a working horse ranch for several years, known for their specialty of offering riding pony lessons to children. Special events such as the pumpkin patch have also cropped up in recent years.</p><h3>Fruitville Grove, Sarasota, FL</h3><br/><p>This farm has been holding its pumpkin festival for over 30 years. But events there also include a variety of family activities: pony rides, a rock wall, and a bounce house. And in October, pumpkin painting. Each venue has their own set price, but admission and parking is free along with the petting zoo, playground, live music and decorated photo locations. The store is not free, of course, but it offers certified and non-certified organic farm fresh citrus and produce that is grown locally. Jams, jellies, honey and hand-dipped ice cream are also favorites. And pumpkin ice cream is sold year-round.</p><h3>Pumpkin Towne, Jupiter, Wellington, Stuart, FL</h3><br/><blockquote class="instagram-media" data-instgrm-permalink="https://www.instagram.com/p/BaE7LsaglYn/" data-instgrm-version="4" style="background:#FFF; border:0; border-radius:3px; box-shadow:0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width:658px; padding:0; width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);"> <div style="padding:8px;"> <div style="background:#F8F8F8; line-height:0; margin-top:40px; padding:50% 0; text-align:center; width:100%;"> <div style="background:url(data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAACwAAAAsCAMAAAApWqozAAAAGFBMVEUiIiI9PT0eHh4gIB4hIBkcHBwcHBwcHBydr+JQAAAACHRSTlMABA4YHyQsM5jtaMwAAADfSURBVDjL7ZVBEgMhCAQBAf//42xcNbpAqakcM0ftUmFAAIBE81IqBJdS3lS6zs3bIpB9WED3YYXFPmHRfT8sgyrCP1x8uEUxLMzNWElFOYCV6mHWWwMzdPEKHlhLw7NWJqkHc4uIZphavDzA2JPzUDsBZziNae2S6owH8xPmX8G7zzgKEOPUoYHvGz1TBCxMkd3kwNVbU0gKHkx+iZILf77IofhrY1nYFnB/lQPb79drWOyJVa/DAvg9B/rLB4cC+Nqgdz/TvBbBnr6GBReqn/nRmDgaQEej7WhonozjF+Y2I/fZou/qAAAAAElFTkSuQmCC); display:block; height:44px; margin:0 auto -44px; position:relative; top:-22px; width:44px;"> </div> </div> <p style=" margin:8px 0 0 0; padding:0 4px;"> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/BaE7LsaglYn/" style=" color:#000; font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; font-style:normal; font-weight:normal; line-height:17px; text-decoration:none; word-wrap:break-word;" target="_top">See on Instagram</a> </p> </div> </blockquote><script async="" defer="" src="//platform.instagram.com/en_US/embeds.js"></script><p>Not everyone likes chains, but this one came to South Florida more than a decade ago and has been so popular it now has three South Florida locations. Not entirely a surprise because it caters to families who have made it part of their holiday traditions. Families have seriously adopted its suggestion that pumpkins are not just about picking your own but also about "embracing the fall spirit." It helps do that by adding amenities for kids such as bounce houses, hay bales to climb to new heights, head cutout photo ops, and a merry-go-round. The lots also sell pumpkin carving kits, pumpkin carving saws and even books on the subject. </p><h3>Holland Farms, Milton, FL</h3><br/><p>This family-run farm calls itself "the nuttiest place around." And that sure is accurate because they started as a peanut farm before adding other events such as pumpkins, making themselves one of the few area places for pumpkins. Owner Bruce Holland began farming while in high school during the early 1970s. His family has had the farm for more than a century. Holland Farms boils peanuts for local high school band boosters, quarterback clubs and raceways. Today, they're one of the only pumpkin patches where you can pick your pumpkin. The pumpkins are cut from the vine so you know which ones are ripe enough to pick but are in their original growing place. Activities include a "spider web," sandbox, swings, horse tire swings, pedal tractor cart racing, slides, petting zoo, corn box, zip lines, and a maze. </p><h3>Isle of Faith's Pumpkin Patch, Jacksonville, FL</h3><br/><p>They call it "pumpkins with a purpose." Several years ago a church member came up with the idea to start a pumpkin patch in the open field on this Methodist Church property. The idea was to encourage family fun, and also help financially support the church. It's turned into one of the best patches in the area, where some of the freshest pumpkins are offered. Events include craft fairs, face painting, bounce houses, and a "trunk-or-treat" day - candy offered from car trunks. Admission is free and pumpkins are sold by donation. It's open daily through the end of October. If you happen to live in the area and the spirit moves you, volunteers for the event are always welcome.</p><h3>The Little Farm, Goulds, FL</h3><br/><p>Not so "little" when you consider it draws people from heavily populated Dade County, which includes Miami, as well as Broward County, which is home to Fort Lauderdale, and also the Florida Keys and Key Largo. Family activities have been the major reason since 1978. Pumpkins aside, visitors can accompany employees on actual farm feeding. help feed the animals, and even milk the cows. The farm also features animals such as goats, sheep, piglets, geese, ducks, turkeys and others. Don't miss the loveable three-foot-high pony that is always a treat to see. </p><h3>Key Insights at a Glance</h3><br/><ul><li>There are multiple uses for pumpkins, including decoration and cooking.</li><li>Florida has many farms and patches where you can pick your own pumpkins.</li><li>Look for orange-colored pumpkins that are medium-sized for carving and smaller ones for cooking.</li><li>Top pumpkin-picking spots in Florida include Painted Oaks Academy, Fruitville Grove, Pumpkin Towne, and Holland Farms.</li><li>Events at these locations often include pony rides, bounce houses, petting zoos, and other family activities.</li><li>Isle of Faith's Pumpkin Patch in Jacksonville draws visitors from various counties and features farm feeding and animal interactions.</li><li>The Little Farm in Goulds offers a variety of family activities and the opportunity to see and interact with farm animals.</li></ul>]]></description><pubDate>Thu, 26 Sep 2024 05:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://bestlocalthings.com/fl/pumpkin-patch-florida</guid><category>Fall</category><category>Pumpkin-picking</category><category>Entertainment</category><category>Fall activities</category><dc:creator>David Wilkening</dc:creator><media:content medium="image" type="image/jpeg" url="https://bestlocalthings.com/media-library/fl-pumpkin-pick.jpg?id=52082255&width=980"></media:content></item><item><title>Oktoberfest at Frazier Creek Brewing</title><link>https://bestlocalthings.com/fl/oktoberfest-at-frazier-creek-brewing-2024-10-06-stuart</link><description><![CDATA[ <p>Get ready to don your lederhosen and dirndls because Oktoberfest at Frazier Creek Brewing & Distilling is just around the corner!
