Fall means Pumpkin Patch time

















On Maui most people think the fall colors we enjoy are just the oranges and reds of our sunsets. But the other side of Maui (Upcountry) holds many of the traditional treats that mainlanders know and love. Our family went to the Kula Country Farm today and had a super fun time at the Pumpkin Patch. The Kula Country Farm not only has the Pumpkin Patch, but U Pick Strawberries, an example of a hydroponic garden, a corn maze, flower farm, and of course horses, goats, chickens and cows for viewing. We picked our favorite pumpkins and I found some fresh limes, and a vine ripened tomato for our dinner too. When visiting Maui or even if you live here don't forget to head up Haleakala Hwy and you will be pleasantly surprised at the country atmosphere there. Now go pick your pumpkin before they are all gone...
