Community - Mission - Connection
From the Great Pumpkin Unload to our annual movie night, the Jesse Lee Pumpkin Patch is an autumn institution in Ridgefield.
Our pumpkins are sustainably grown on a reservation in New Mexico, providing some 700 jobs for Navajo workers at fall harvest time in a community where unemployment hovers above 40%.
A portion of proceeds also helps fund the missions of the church. By buying your pumpkins here, you’re helping Jesse Lee help people in need.
The 2024 pumpkin patch sold over $72,000 in pumpkins, gourds, and hay bales and welcomed several thousand visitors.
