(La Porte County, IN) - There's no need to panic for people looking for a pumpkin patch this time of year.  One of the places is go is Todd’s Pumpkin Patch on Cougar Road not far from New Prairie High School in the northeast portion of La Porte County.

 

Carol Zeigner says there are two acres of pumpkins for people to go out and pick themselves along with some already picked to take home.

 

“We have some pre-picked in the yard or we can give you a wheel burrow and a pair of cutters and you can go out in the field and, actually, cut your own pumpkin off the vine", Zeigner said.

 

Zeigner also says there’s plenty of pumpkins and a wide variety from having a bumper crop this season.

 

 

“We have the traditional orange ones anywhere from the size you can hold in your hand to some that it takes two people to lift.  We have white ones, pink ones, red ones, gray ones, tan ones,” she said.

 

Zeigner said there are also other kinds like green pumpkins and squash.   She said it’s a fun time of year with kids and even their parents excited to go out and cut their own pumpkin.
