There is nothing I love more in this world (well, after my husband and child) than pumpkins!
I love them so much, they were the main focal point at both my wedding AND my baby shower. Heck, my husband even proposed in the pumpkin patch.
Seriously…
Pumpkin Picking is an annual family event in this house. We’ve been taking our boy ever year since he was the size of a pumpkin!
I love to go on the hunt for a perfect pumpkin, or two; or a few dozen. And if you love pumpkin picking as much as I do, then you’ll love this new Guide because I’ve found a lot of pumpkin patches in Connecticut. And not surprisingly, my family has been to a lot of them. But there are still so many more for us to explore!
I hope you enjoy this list, and maybe you’ll discover a new favorite destination or you’ll start up a new family tradition!
