This is the sweet spot in a pumpkin's life. Thousands of pumpkins that have grown up in a patch are off the vine now, and the clock is ticking before the dreaded shrivel and rot happens. So how long do we have? And there is at least one thing we can do to get pumpkins to last longer.
One more thing that we can count on about fall in addition to pumpkin spice everything and creepy clowns...pumpkin patches! And this one is popular, so book your spot now, before it sells out.
The pumpkin spice lattes are out, so we know the actual pumpkins are not far behind. East Texas will have plenty of great pumpkin patches up and running this fall, and we've got the first look.
