This weekend is your last chance to visit Pumpkin Fest at Linden Lane Farms in Krestova.
The seventh annual edition of the family-friendly event will be on from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. today and tomorrow.
Owner Matt Carr says they’ll have U-pick pumpkins, vendors, their produce stand, a treasure hunt, a maze, and a chance to see goats and cows do their thing.
Linden Lane was established in 2012 when Carr started growing food on his grandparents’ property.
“We started the Pumpkin Fest because we love having people come up to the farm, enjoy the magic of the fall and get to celebrate with the rest of the community,” he said.
One major part of the festival is the Hope in the Field fundraiser. Over the last decade, in honour of the late Brooke Malakoff, who died at 20, all proceeds from pink, blue, and green pumpkin sales have gone towards family care for kids fighting cancer.
Carr said they’ve raised almost $20,000 in that time.
