It’s the season for pumpkin spice, which is oh so nice. Now you might not need actually pumpkins to make this iconic drink (sorry if that ruins the fun for some of you) but pumpkins are the inspiration nonetheless! So yes, it is that time of year again when everyone’s favorite orange gourds grows to full size and are proudly displayed on every front porch. To get the full fall effect, though, you have to go to a good pumpkin patch. You might ask “What are some good pumpkin patches near me?” And to that question, I say: read on!
