Hello everyone! It's been a while because we were settling into our new apt here in NH! Glad to be back on the East coast, and really enjoying what NH has to offer!
Anyone have any suggestions about where we can go pumpkin picking? I wouldn't mind if we go up towards the Conway area, haven't been up that way yet, and I hear it's beautiful!
In addition to Mack's, Sunnycrest Farm on High Range Road in Londonderry has a nice pumpkin patch, and pick your own apples as well, along with sheep and goats to feed and pet (across the street from their store). Just about 5 minutes drive from Sunnycrest is Elwood Farm. Elwood is where the locals shop for fresh produce. It's not a 'cute, quaint' little farm, it's a real New Hampshire working farm. They've got a really cool corn maze that gets better every year. Older teens think it's corny, middle schoolers and younger think it's great, especially after dark!
After the recent storms you could just net pumpkins out of the Connecticut River. Apparently a large amount of the riverside pumpkin crop just floated away.
PS - Sunnycrest farm's bakery has the best cookies ever. As well as scrumptious raisin bread. NH breakfast is pancakes, with fruit like raspberries and bananas, butter and REAL maple syrup, sausage patties and lots of coffee. These are available at Poor Boy’s or The Rt. 28 Roadhouse in North Londonderry. Saturday breakfast with friends is one of our traditions.
So come on up some Saturday morning and have a great breakfast and then go pumpkin picking.

hehe - 60K to 100K pumpkins just floated away - some of the stories of where they ended up are pretty good
the farmer went from a bumper crop to fair to middlin'....
