Pumpkins
Home to a beloved pumpkin patch in Spring Hope, NC — from unique heirloom varieties to classic Jack-o'-lanterns, we have something for everyone.
We Are a Family-Owned Bicentennial Farm Since 1781
Welcome to Bunn Family Farms, home to a beloved pumpkin patch in Spring Hope, NC! Whether you're here to decorate, carve, or cook, our farm is your go-to destination for all things pumpkin. From unique heirloom varieties to classic Jack-o'-lanterns, we have something for everyone.
Every fall, our fields fill in with row after row of pumpkins in every shape, size, and color you can imagine — the classic round orange kind you grew up carving, alongside warty heirlooms, ghostly whites, and miniature varieties perfect for a mantel display. Because we grow everything ourselves right here on land our family has worked since 1781, you're getting pumpkins that were picked fresh, not shipped in from a distributor. That difference shows up in the weight of the pumpkin in your hands and how long it holds up once it's home.

Easy & Delicious Pumpkin Recipes
Deliciously Pumpkin — Turn your harvest into a feast with our collection of mouthwatering pumpkin recipes. Whether you're looking for sweet treats or savory dishes, we've got you covered. Pie pumpkins from our patch are smaller and sweeter than the big carving varieties, which makes a real difference once they're roasted down for pie filling, bread, or soup — the flavor is noticeably richer than what you'd get from a can. If you've never cooked with a fresh pumpkin before, our pie pumpkins are the easiest place to start.
- Classic Pumpkin Pie

From painted pumpkins to stunning centerpieces, let your imagination run wild!
