Autumn is a magical time of the year, when the air turns crisp, leaves crunch underfoot, and pumpkins make their annual appearance.
This October, the enchantment is amplified at the Westbrae Nursery’s Pumpkin Patch in the heart of Berkeley. Running from October 1-31, 2023, this isn’t just any pumpkin patch—it’s a community-driven initiative where every pumpkin you purchase aids helps fund local schools.
Tucked away in the scenic North Berkeley Westbrae neighborhood, Westbrae Nursery transforms its backyard into a pumpkin wonderland. Here, amidst the lush greenery of the nursery, you’ll discover pumpkins of all hues, shapes, and sizes, eagerly awaiting a new home.
Whether you’re carving a spooky jack-o’-lantern or baking a sumptuous pumpkin pie, you’ll find the perfect pumpkin for your needs. It’s no wonder that the Westbrae Pumpkin Patch has earned the title of an East Bay favorite and stands as one of the only pumpkin patches in Berkeley—a true hidden gem.
But the festivities at Westbrae aren’t limited to just pumpkins. Immerse yourself in the local charm by exploring other Westbrae delights. Sip on a heartwarming brew at Coffee Conscious, indulge in a savory treat at Berkeley Bagels, or simply unwind with friends and family at the Westbrae Biergarten. The essence of fall permeates every corner.
Mark your calendars for a special treat! On October 21, 2023, between 12 pm and 3 pm, the pumpkin patch will host a bake sale featuring a range of delectable fall-themed baked goods. From pumpkin muffins to apple pies, there’s something to tickle everyone’s taste buds. And the best part? Every bite you take and pumpkin you buy supports a noble cause, with all sales benefiting the local Cornell elementary school.
