Coconut Grove Pumpkin Patch Festival This Weekend

COCONUT GROVE (CBSMiami) — With summer gone with the wind, it is time to celebrate autumn. Coconut Grove residents are doing just that with their first Coconut Grove Pumpkin Patch Festival.

The festival is taking place at Peacock Park from 10am-6pm on Saturday and Sunday.

Even Founder Vanessa Goodis promises a wonderFALL time for the whole family at the pumpkin patch. The patch will feature more than 2,000 pumpkins of all shapes and sizes to choose from, plus a decorating tent right on-site.

Kids will be treated to a free play in the Dress-Your-Own Scarecrow Village, a GoGo squeeZ Mobile Playground, Hay Bale Maze, carnival rides in the Kids Fun Zone, and free shows all day on the main stage.

Adults can enjoy the professional photography station, shopping 20-plus vendors, feasting on carnival fare (candy apples, caramel corn, arepas). Breakfast, lunch and other snacks from 11 food vendors will be there as well.
