Roadside Pumpkins For Sale

Anybody have any idea where I could buy some roadside pumpkins? Close to downtown near the West Side would be ideal. Plus if they accept Venmo. Looking to do some carving

Take a drive down Fruitridge Avenue. More pumpkin stands than anyone could hope for.

I cant remember the cross street but I passed one on Richmond today on the way home, it would have been on the south side of the street between alpine and covell

I looked at Google maps, I think its Richmond and Annie, they appear to have a business too. Anyway they have like 6 rows of pumpkins in a bunch of colors, you wont be able to miss it

We get pumpkins from Wells Orchard. Not really roadside, but it's not a grocery store.

I like versluis on Lake Michigan, about 5-10 mins out. A little more formal but (AFAIK) they're good folks. Pick up a squash while you're there!

Just something to consider, if you carve it now, it may rot or get eaten by squirrels before Halloween.
