Carlsbad Pumpkins
Tis the season for pumpkins all around Carlsbad, with multiple pumpkin patches and nurseries displaying an array of this classic fall and Halloween offering.
We were out shopping for some mums for the front porch yesterday and spied this collection of pumpkins for sale with some pretty cool colors, shapes and textures, along with a basket full of miniatures.
Jeff ... as they say ... the frost is on the pumpkin .... everywhere of course, except where you live ... after our summer of 100 plus, the cool nights feel pretty enchanting in their own right!

Hi Nina Hollander - oh plenty of those here, too. There are several fields that have a huge collection of them, and some are gigantic!
Ron and Alexandra Seigel - I enjoy the unique ones, too. The photo you shared from your farmer's market the other day was great!

Will Hamm - indeed, as well as all the other decorations that are popping up everywhere
George Souto - I look forward to it. I need to do one as well
Mary Yonkers - I like the ones that are different, although I suppose for a good carving pumpkin you need the classic
Jeff
Myrl Jeffcoat - I bet Mary would have let everyone know about a move like that!!
Thanks Robert Bob Gilbert - they were fun to see
Hi Maria Sapio - and thank you for stopping by. It's a colorful time of year with Mother Nature

I love the variety of pumpkins you have! We stacked them a couple of years ago, it was a very pretting setting on my front porch!

Hey Jack Mossman - The Nines Team at Keller Williams in Lodi - it's been cooler here at night too, and definitely feels fallish! BUt a mini heatwave this weekend with mid 80s, but nothing like a week ago
Karen Fiddler, Broker/Owner - they really are fun to see, all shapes, sizes and colors. Makes the plain orange ones look pretty boring
Jeff
Hi Noah Seidenberg - they are, aren't they. But I didn't buy!
Evelyn Johnston - now that would have been fun to see!
Jeff
I love the Fall and all of it's pumpkin-ness ! We have the most amazing Fall festivities in Spokane, thanks for sharing !
Hi Jeff Dowler , With all the farms around here, there are an abundance of U-pick pumpkin patches. Thanks for sharing your pumpkins with us.
Good morning Jeff. For my wife any time of the year is a good time to have a slice of pumpkin pie.
Hi Jeff -- the variety of shapes, colors and textures that can be found in a pumpkin patch is a sure signal that Fall has arrived even with our warmer temps.

This is the 2nd shot of an array of pumpkins. Sure gives reason to drift from the traditional 'orange' pumpkin. Mark
BethAnn Long - they are always fun to see and it seems there are more and different kinds each year! Thanks for coming by!
Larry Johnston - I bet! We have to go inland a little ways to see lots of farms but we have a big pumpkin patch here in Carlsbad
James Dray - ha ha. So she is a REAL fan at Thanksgiving!

Michael Jacobs - indeed. The pumpkin fields are always pretty easy to spot. I like the striped ones myself!
Mark Don McInnes, Sandpoint - it's nice to have a break from tradition!
Thanks Pamela Cendejas - I was pretty impressed myself!

I love to see all the pumpkins and gourds at this time of year! Great pictures!
It's great fun, isn't it Georgie Hunter R(S) ? It's amazing what they can grow. I saw another collection today at Home Depot with some really beautiful big white pumpkins!
Jeff
I am attracted to the weirdly shaped pumpkins and the ones with the funny colors like white, pink and green. I never remember that being the case when I was growing up.
