We went up to the local Methodist church here in town, where they have been selling pumpkins for years. I don't know why I never went there before to buy one. What we discovered was that all the pumpkins for sale come from New Mexico! They are raised by Najavo farmers, and there is little market for pumpkins out there, so they load a trailer truck full of thousands of our favorite Halloween vegetable and drive them here to Sea Cliff! All the money raised from selling them goes directly to the Navajo. Tell me that isn't a great reason for buying THESE pumpkins! Amy and Liz went right to work and each found their "perfect" pumpkin! And you get to see them first. Wait until you see their Jack-O-Lanterns!
