Where the Valley keeps the seasons.
Today, the Pumpkin Patch is in season.
Walk the pathThe heart of pumpkin season
Every pumpkin has a place. Find yours.
The rows are full beside the Conservatory, cider is warming at the farm stand, and Edgar continues to describe the patch as hopeful.
Autumn has settled in: bright afternoons, cool shadows, dusty paths, uncarved pumpkins, and lanterns beginning to earn their keep as evening comes sooner.

There is more than one way through the patch.

Six paths have taken root.
Each path now leads somewhere complete: a walk, a basket, a pumpkin, a story, a recipe, or a first frame in the gallery.
The fields can grow slowly from here—one new tradition at a time.
Seasonal Almanac
The fields do not close. They turn.
Each season arrives twice: first as a beginning, then as a celebration.
