For those of you wanting a pumpkin, here is what was left over from the GGPP! You can purchase them at BCGC this week. Stop in any time we are open: Wednesday, Thursday or Friday from 1:30 - 6 pm and Saturday 12 - 5 pm!

BCGC is located at 229 W Grimes Ln, Bloomington IN, next to the north end entrance of Switchyard Park.

Pumpkins are sold on a first come, first serve basis. Pumpkins are only sold in person at BCGC. We are unable to hold pumpkins. Due to staffing constraints, we are unable to accommodate requests for prices or inventory questions. We will post each day with what we have left to try to help you know what we have! We appreciate your understanding!! 🖤

While most pumpkin patches are filled with decorative gourds and hay bales, the 17th annual Great Glass Pumpkin Patch offered a different kind of harvest this autumn. A sea of vibrant handblown glass pumpkins in a wide variety of colors lined the courtyard at the Monroe County Courthouse on Saturday, offering families, friends and neighbors an opportunity to embrace local artistry.
