Local non-profit Full Spectrum Farms will host its first Pumpkin Patch on the farm's land on Wayehutta Road, off Old Cullowhee Road in Cullowhee, NC.  Attendees will be able to purchase and carve pumpkins, play traditional games, and create fall crafts including jack-o-lanterns, corn dolls, and leaf rubbings. Join us at the campfire; sing songs and hear stories. A 2 night stay at the Dillsboro Inn is one of the items to be raffled. Come see our rare white pumpkins.
