Free Fun at 4th Annual St. John’s Pumpkin Patch

Professional Archaeologist Dianna Doucette, from PAL, will present her findings of Native American activity in the Franklin area at the Franklin Historical Museum on October 15th.

The 4th Annual Pumpkin Sale will be open all month long from October 2 to 31 at St. John’s Episcopal Church, 237 Pleasant Street, Franklin. 

A huge selection of pumpkins and gourds of all sizes, shapes and colors will fill the front lawn at St. John’s Church. Kids of all ages will have fun picking out their favorites. It’s a good photo opportunity for families. 

Family activities will be offered every weekend in the Patch:

Music Together for families on Saturday, Oct. 7th at 11a.m., FREE

Pet Blessings and outdoor worship on Sunday, Oct. 8th at 10 a.m., FREE

Pony Rides on Saturday, Oct. 14 from 1-2 p.m. - $5 per ride

Beaded bracelets craft on Saturday, Oct. 21 from 11 a.m. – 2 p.m., FREE

Watch the St. John’s Episcopal Church Facebook page for updates.

See you there: Monday-Friday 4-6 p.m., Saturdays 10 a.m.-4 p.m., Sundays 12 noon-4 p.m.

We can all benefit. The pumpkins are grown using sustainable agricultural practices that help benefit the environment. They are grown in a region of New Mexico with 42% unemployment, providing jobs for Navajo people.  In addition to supporting the Navajo Nation in New Mexico, your purchase also supports St. John’s Church and its work right here in our community.
