Located at 1272 Gilman Street, the pumpkin patch is open daily from 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. through the end of October. Visitors can choose from a variety of pumpkins and enjoy a seasonal atmosphere while supporting the local school.

In addition to pumpkins, there will be bake sales on October 12 and October 19 from 11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the pumpkin patch. Fall-themed baked goods will be available, with all proceeds going directly to Cornell Elementary.

On October 19, Westbrae Nursery will also partner with neighboring Headlands Brewing from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. During this time, 10% of beer sales at the brewery will be donated to the school.

This community-centered event is a great opportunity to enjoy seasonal activities while supporting local education.
