Pumpkins With a Purpose
Every fall, First Parish hosts the "Pumpkins With a Purpose" pumpkin patch, where the community is invited to purchase beautiful pumpkins and gourds. The Patch, staffed by volunteers, runs from mid-October through Halloween and provides a wonderful gathering place for friends and families while they search for that perfect pumpkin.
Why "Pumpkins With a Purpose"? Because our pumpkins have a mission! All proceeds from their sale benefit First Parish outreach efforts, with disbursement determined by First Parish's Ministry of Mission & Service. Each pumpkin is not only a decorative symbol of the season, but also a way to help others. It doesn't get any better than that!
The 2006 Patch will be open from Saturday,
October 14th through Wednesday, October 31st, 10-5:00 PM (Mon-Sat) and
Noon-5:00 (Sundays). See you then!
