Plenty O' Pumpkins

Nothing says October like bright orange pumpkins!  And a great place to pick out your pumpkins is at the Chesebrough Farm east of Templeton.  They always have such a colorful and artistic display of pumpkins of all sizes, shapes, and colors.  They specialize in carving a family or business name on a pumpkin when it's still growing in the field for a personalized pumpkin!  Here's how to get there....go east on Vinyard over the Salinas River, pass the turn off to Templeton Road (that goes to Atascadero), go a little bit further until you come to Moss Lane.  Turn right onto Moss Lane - it's a bumpy narrow dirt road so drive slowly and enjoy the shady oak lined road with a vineyard on the left, and fields on the right.  In a couple of miles, you'll come up a little hill, and there is the farm.  Enjoy strolling around a looking at all the pumpkins and displays and pick out the perfect pumpkin for your holiday decorating (or pie!)

Now, wasn't that more fun than picking up your pumpkin at Albertsons or Safeway!!!
