Giant Pumpkin Lands in Nursery, Children Hide in Straw House

A Giant Pumpkin, a Giant Spider, and a Straw House attract children of all ages to Landscape Source Nursery’s Annual Pumpkin Patch.

Rockwall, TX, October 11, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Landscape Source Nursery announces the arrival of its giant pumpkin to launch its 6th Annual Pumpkin Patch Festival in Rockwall.'

Among the fun and exciting attractions are “the biggest maze in all of Rockwall, the Three Little Pigs Hay House, a giant Spider, and a spooky ‘Tomb's Town’ setting for unique photo opportunities,” says Jerry Ruddell, the Nursery’s General Manager.

More than just another colorful pumpkin patch, this year’s event will also feature an area for children to sit and enjoy coloring books, a story time area, a family picnic area, and a children's movie theater which will play none other than “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown". According to Ruddell, “we have a contest going where visitors are asked to guess the weight of the ‘Great Pumpkin’. The winner will receive a valuable gift certificate to Landscape Source Nursery.

The Pumpkin Patch is open to the general public, and admission is free. Schools, daycare centers, and private groups with 20 or more children require a $2.00 pumpkin purchase, per child. The Nursery is also providing a ‘Pumpkin Patch on Wheels’ program, which delivers pumpkins to select daycare centers and schools in the area with 20 or more children, in exchange for a $2.00 pumpkin purchase, per child,” explained Ruddell.
