Once the 3,000 pumpkins are unloaded (smallest ones first) they have to be layed on either utility spools or on wooden pallets Sunday for the 20th annual Pumpkin Patch at Cartaret St. United Mehodist Church. Here, volunters sort them by color and size before going on sale noon Monday, Sept. 27, through 6 p.m. The patch will be open noon-6 p.m. through Sunday, October 31. All funds from the sale of pumpkins go the church’s Youth Ministry.
