  A visitor writes on November 15, 2011: "ALL profits go to charities. The church keeps NONE of the money. It also benefits the Navajo Indians of Northern New Mexico, where the pumpkins are grown on irrigated tribal lands using controlled farming conditions which make for a superb yearly crop available at modest prices. Parishioners volunteer to help during the 3+ weeks of this project by unloading all of the pumpkins themselves in a "bucket brigade" style, by staffing the patch during selling times, and by providing the breads, harvest soups, cupcakes, cider, and autumn craft items. Apple crisps, truly a staple of the ICOH parish-made products, are mouth-watering and raise an incredible amount of money."

  Comments from Blake, October 19, 2011:  "What a great farm!  The staff are all very pleasant, prices are reasonable, the place is huge and there is so much to do.  A family could easily spend most of the day here.  They have the nices, cleanest, flush toliets I've ever seen at a farm!  I highly recommend Belvedere Plantation!"
