Best Pumpkin Patches In Wichita Falls
Halloween is approaching fast and you know what that means? Pumpkins! In fact, to see all the pumpkins and gourds around town, you’d never know Wichita Falls was in the throes of a drought. Of course, most of the pumpkins probably are not coming from the immediate area, but they make for some nice color in an otherwise uniformly brown landscape.
So, where are the pumpkin patches and available pumpkins for purchase in Wichita Falls?
As you can see, the Smith's pumpkin patch in Wichita Falls is taking shape nicely. Yes, they are for sale, but each year they put together a top-notch assortment that’s just cool to see. Check them out at 4940 Seymour Hwy.
Market Street would love for all of you to come by and take their pumpkins, please. But pay for them first. They're pumpkin pie isn't half bad either. I'm all about the pie. Nice work on the displays! Do you guys contract out? 4590 Kell Blvd is where you'll find this fancy display.
UUMC should be getting their annual patch together soon on Taft Boulevard. It’s one that seems to get bigger each year. It’s a joint effort from the kids to the adults; everyone gets involved. You have to go check it out! Church officials say it should be built and ready for your viewing pleasure by this weekend (9/28)! Don't miss it, right across from MSU.
