Hank’s Pumpkintown in Water Mill has officially opened for the season signaling the official launch of the Fall season for Hamptons locals. We pushed a wheel barrow through Pumpkintown this morning picking up some gigantic specimen for my new front “porchscape”. How do you grow pumpkins this big Hank? A little bird told me that lots of the pumpkins are trucked in from other farms and plunked down in the patch. Load the family up and head over this weekend before the crazy crowds start to come and you can’t find a parking spot for a mile.

P-Town offers hay rides, a corn maze, face painting, pony rides, and home made pies, apple cider donuts, roasted corn in the new beautiful barn Hank recently built. Make sure to suit up the kiddies in cute outfits because a bright beautiful pumpkin patch is a great backdrop for fall family photos. Have fun!
