The St Johns Boosters (“Boo”-sters) Pumpkin Giveaway and Decorating Contest starts Friday October 1st!

Plumper Pumpkin Patch & Tree Farm
Plumper Pumpkin Patch and Tree Farm is family-owned and has been open since 1998.

We received a donation of 40 Sugar Pie Pumpkins from Plumper Pumpkin Patch, a wonderful farm off of Skyline Road. It’s a beautiful property and a great place to visit, with activities for kids and kids-at-heart.
