one of the guys at work grew up in the allegan area, so i like to ask him from time to time about local things. as halloween is almost upon us, i asked him where the best place would be to get pumpkins from. he told us about gene the pumpkin man! apparently he's a local icon around these parts and if you want good pumpkins, then there's no one better than ol' gene. not wanting to miss out on such a wonderful opportunity, we headed down there at our first opportunity! it was a little bit rainy when we headed over, but figuring it was fall, that was about the weather one would expect.
as we pulled up to the pumpkin farm, the first thing ledger noticed was how everything was orange- and he was delighted!
we picked out a couple nice pumpkins, including a few little gourds just for fun, and even got a chance to talk with gene himself. the farm was fun to visit and the pumpkins were top-notch, so we will definitely make this a regular visit from here on out!
