Pumpkin Patch
Every October FBC hosts a pumpkin patch as a way to raise money for missions. You can come out an get a pumpkin; take seasonal, family pictures; or let your kids enjoy the games and corn maze!
- Pumpkin Patch Wrap-up: Mission and Community
The annual church Pumpkin Patch has once again wrapped up a wonderful season, proving that it’s a true community favorite and an excellent “memory maker” for all who visit!
Our annual patch is not only a fundraiser but is one of our best outreach events. The community’s love for the patch was evident this year, and we are so grateful for everyone who came out to support us!
By the Numbers: Sales and Donations
We are pleased to report a successful season of sales and generous donations. We do not track individual pumpkin sales, as inventory is managed based on our overall annual sales. This year the patch earned $3,390.61 and direct donations of $589, all of which go directly to our Missions Committee, supporting local and international missions opportunities.
Field Trips: An Educational Outreach
Our commitment to the community shines through our popular field trip program. We were thrilled to host 24 field trips this season, offering an enriching, fun, and free experience for local children. Our field trips include a complimentary snack for all participants, and they play games and hear stories. For students who wish to purchase a keepsake, we offer a small $1 pumpkin.
Get Involved!
The Pumpkin Patch is a true labor of love and a beacon of hospitality in our community. We invite you to be part of its continued success! We are looking for new leaders to step in next year. If you have fresh ideas, are interested in helping with leadership or volunteer roles, or have suggestions for the 2026 season, please reach out! New leadership brings the possibility of great things, and we’re excited to see what we can accomplish together.
