Pumpkin Platoon

Pumpkin Platoon

Recently we were driving along the Delaware River in Bucks County and came upon a scene of pumpkins on the lawn of a farm house just on the other side of the canal.  We had to stop for this photo op and then of course to purchase some great produce and an apple coconut custard pie!  Yum! Made by the owner of Trauger's Farm.

Chris, It just popped into my head!  Happy Halloween to you also!

Joni, Oh my it was heavenly as you said!  There was a bottom layer of apple...almost a sauce then the coconut custard on top.  And it was baked just right for us with browning on top and edge of crust!!  Yum!  May have to experiment!

Your photograph turns my thoughts to pumpkin pies.

Have a wonderful week.

That does look like a Pumpkin Platoon.  It would be cute if they had little military hats on them!

WOW...that is awesome. Pick your pumpkin. We don't carve anymore, but we got one just because that's all we've done.

Roy, Pumpkins are on my mind also!  Have a great Autumn!

Hi Myrl Jeffcoat , It would be cute!  And would probably be an added selling point!

Thank you Patricia Kennedy !  I have never seen such a display before....so orderly!

Debbie Laity we don't carve either.  I usually get the small pumpkins and use the artificial lighted pumpkins for porch display.

Hi Sam,  I have not seen an honor pay pumpkin stand here...you live in a more trusting area!

Ed Silva you have a really good point there!  I hope to post an article about this place with more photos.  Their display was amazing.  I am used to barrels full of pumpkins at most other farms.

Sheila Newton Team -- Anderson & Greenville SC Real Estate We enjoy checking out farmers' markets since there are usually great jams baked goods.  This place is one of the best for pies!!

Have a great Autumn everyone!

I love how they are lined up like solders.  I bet at the end of a busy sales day, their ranks had fallen.
