Maywood Pumpkin Patch

We will need a tractor or roto-tiller to dig for the seeds. We will be putting the pumpkin patch on the far left corner of the big field.We are planting Max Pumpkins.If we are able to put the pumpkin patch there we will try to put it in by October next year. We are doing this because we want the students and faculty to get in the fall spirit!

How Are Kids Going To Grow A Pumpkin Patch?

If any kids at our school want to help plant pumpkins, they will have to take a test on how to plant them correctly so we know that the pumpkins will grow right.

The tests will be graded and the top 6(for example) will schedule when they will be able to come plant and water their pumpkins. According to who is able to come, when the pumpkins are ready to be sold we will have kids come and tell customers about the pumpkins.

We plan on using the money we make to purchase dinner items for needy families in Tehama County.To meet this goal we have, we will be pricing the pumpkins by pound.

1 pound pumpkin is $1 2 pound pumpkin is $2 3 pound pumpkin is $3 4-7 pound pumpkins are $4 8-15 pound pumpkins are $5 Hopefully there will be around 200 pumpkins to sell!!We plan on getting the money to buy the 2 pounds of pumpkin seeds and a rental tractor from fundraisers. The pumpkin seeds will cost around $120.00!

We will need money to buy pumpkin seeds and to rent a tractor. How will we get the money?We will be having a car wash, a bake sale, and we’ll sell tickets to reserve pumpkins for people that don’t have time to come down to the pumpkin patch. People who reserve pumpkins will have a pumpkin sent to their house.

With some of the pumpkins that don’t sell, we’ll carve into jack-o-lanterns and bake the gooey, yucky seeds into yummy, salty pumpkin seeds.

With the rest of the pumpkins that aren’t sold, we will bake them into delicious pumpkin pies and give them to needy families for Thanksgiving.
