Legare Farms - Fall Activities!!!


We’re still taking reservations from teachers for the Pumpkin Patch field trip and are already booking Thanksgiving on the Farm field trips for November. Fall is just a busy time for us and the farm.

We hope all of you will come out to the farm in October and November for all of our festivities. We of course have the pumpkin patch with pumpkins ranging from $3 to $8. We have everything from pie pumpkin to the jumbos for carving.
