Patterson Farm, Inc. Pumpkins
Nothing says fall like a pumpkin. And nothing says pumpkins like Patterson Farm. We celebrate fall in a big way, starting with the planting of 40 acres of pumpkins. At harvest time, everyone is invited to come share in the celebration through tours and weekend family events.
Squash
Patterson Farm grows three different varieties of squash: zucchini, yellow straight neck and yellow crook neck. Squash is available mid-June through September. We have three different plantings of five acres each to ensure availability throughout the summer. Purchase squash at the Patterson Farm produce market, or call 704-857-0025 for wholesale squash orders.
Safety First
Food Safety is very important at Patterson Farm, Inc. Since 2002, we have voluntarily used the GAPs Program (Good Agricultural Practices) to train all employees in the use of proper hand-washing techniques. This program ensures that procedures are in place to ensure a safe food supply to our customers. We train about 300 employees annually using this program.
