SUMMARY: Pumpkin patches are a delightful fall tradition for both children and adults, offering a chance to connect with nature and support local farms. Pumpkins, which have been harvested since early American days, are grown on every continent except Antarctica. Notable pumpkin farms in Mississippi include Sandy Run Farm, Triple R Farms, Moseley Meadows, Mitchell Farms, and Williams Family Farms, each boasting high ratings and various family-friendly activities. Visiting pumpkin patches fosters family bonding and creates memories, whether through pumpkin carving or making delicious dishes. Consider making a visit to a local patch this fall for a fun experience!

SUMMARY: St. Patrick’s Day, celebrated on March 17, honors the missionary who introduced Christianity to Ireland. This festive day, where everything turns green, was brought to America by Irish immigrants. Boston held the first official observance in 1737, while St. Augustine claimed the earliest celebration in 1600. In Mississippi, St. Patrick’s festivities kick off in Biloxi with a parade and family-friendly festival on March 15, 2025, followed by Jackson’s Hal’s St. Paddy’s Parade on March 22. Celebrations span the state, inviting everyone to wear green and partake in the fun, avoiding leprechaun pinches along the way.
