The Great Pumpkin Patch and The Homestead Bakery are mid-way through our On-The-Road trekking. We are packing up and heading north for the weekend of Sept 12^th and 13^th. For the second year now we will be joining all the fall harvest market vendors in historic downtown Geneva IL at their 28^th annual “Festival of the Vine (FOV)”. This marks FOV’s second annual Gorgeous Gourds – A Fall Harvest of Natural Art celebration of bounty galore! The lovely gourd mound photographed here is made up entirely of freshly grown and harvested produce and flowers from the TGPP farm, assembled by Mac Condill and his talented crew. This colorful collection sets just the right tone for this outstanding festival of food and wine tasting, a flower market, crafts and fine arts, family games, as well as music and live entertainment. Come join us, and get your fresh made-from-scratch Homestead Bakery cinnamon rolls, cookies, breads and angel food cakes. Have yourself a fabulous weekend!
