How to Organize and Arrange a Pumpkin Sale as a Church Fund Raiser

It's easy and there are many farmers who will work with you!  If you are interested, just email me, and I'll try to help you find one in your area. 

UPDATE August 2007 - I've found some wholesale pumpkin growers who can supply pumpkins for fundraisers! See the list below, then write me, if you'd like to order some for your fund raiser!

And if you are a farmer who has any wholesale pumpkins you want to ship and sell in October, write me!!!!

Below is a list of pumpkin growers who are able to meet some of the demand for pumpkins for fund raisers in 2007. They do not have pumpkins to donate; they raise them for a living. Unless it says they can ship, they expect you to come to the farm to pick them up. Take a look down the list and contact the farm if one of the interests you. Be sure to tell them that you heard about them here!

If there aren't any farms below near you, fear not.  Write me anyway, and I may still be able to match you up.  Small quantities ( under 800 lbs of pumpkins - about 40 or 50 pumpkins) are generally hard to supply - the economics generally doesn't justify shipping pumpkins orders that small, unless the farm is local to you and you can pick them up or arrange shipping yourself.  Below is one farm that can deliver relatively small orders:
