 Volunteering at the Patch

We could not operate our pumpkin patch without wonderful volunteers from our church and the community.

We welcome all ages to volunteer and find out how much fun it is to serve in our patch.  (We are happy to sign community service forms for students)

Pumpkin Unload – Saturday, September 30.  WE NEED VOLUNTEERS to help us unload an entire tractor trailer of pumpkins.  To volunteer and see details about the unloading process, click the appropriate link.  Church Volunteers.  Community Volunteers.

Pumpkin Unload # 2 – Saturday, October 14.  We’ll unload a second truck two weeks later.  Click the appropriate link to sign up.  Church Volunteers.  Community Volunteers.

Daily Shifts – Volunteers can sign up online for 3 hour shifts any day of the week. 10am-1pm. 1 pm-4 pm. 4 pm-dark. (Sunday shifts don’t start until 12 pm).  For students, we can be flexible with shift times depending on their schedule or availability.

Pumpkin Bread Production – Among the reasons people love visiting our patch is receiving a fresh slice of pumpkin bread.  For years, bread production came from the kitchen (and heart) of Catherine Lewis.  However, as our patch has grown, so has our need to expand pumpkin bread production.  We still use the same recipe and only use fresh “Second Baptist pumpkins” but need volunteers to help cook pumpkin, bake bread, and slice bread.  If you are interested in cooking, baking, or slicing this year, contact Daniel .
