SLV School Pumpkin Patch
In late September, we invite school groups to participate in the annual SLV School Pumpkin Patch located in Center. Students get to experience being on a farm and pick out their own special pumpkin to take home. The event owes a big thank you to Jared Myers and Colorado Allied Potato who have hosted the pumpkin patch for 8 consecutive years, working diligently at growing thousands of beautiful pumpkins solely for the community’s benefit.
If your school group was not on the contact list for this year and would like to join for next year, please email, hannah@rgwcei.org. The patch is free for schools and is reserved for scheduled groups only.
2025 Dates:
September 22nd-Sept 25th
*The patch is not open to the community during this time *
We schedule school and homeschool groups only.
Typically the owner opens the patch up to the community at a later date.
Please contact hannah@rgwcei.org to schedule a visit.
2025 Availability
Scheduling Notes:
Most schools are at the patch about 40 minutes. We sometimes have to schedule more than one group at a time, but we try to keep the total number of kids at the patch to 120 or less. Each empty row doesn't necessarily equal one school slot; we modify the rows or the arrival time as they are scheduled.
