Pumpkin Patches just 20 minutes from us!

Is there anything more fun than pumpkin picking during the fall?  The other day went out to Pumpkin Patch to pick out some pumpkins for guest to enjoy in our landscaping to get into the fall spirit.  We enjoyed the corn maze, petting zoo and of course fall treats in the picnic area.  One of the many fun places to see while visiting us in Northwest Portland. Located just 20 minutes from us on Sauvie Island!
