If Life Were A Pumpkin Patch
If life were a pumpkin patch;
And fruit our good deeds.
I pray my fruit would shine forth;
God's love in every seed.
Love and grace, peace, endurance;
Let this fruit grow big and round:
So when you inspect my fruit;
Let God's glory be what's found.
Temperance and self control;
Let this fruit grow big and strong.
I'll fertilize them with care;
Keep them from the blight of wrong.
God's gentleness and kindness;
Let others see them in me;
So when my life is over;
My fruit would sprout fourth seed.
In my pumpkin patch of life;
Let God's goodness be a light.
Let my largest fruit be faith;
With a heart that is upright .
A meek and humble spirit;
Make this fruit bloom and grow.
So others all around me;
Won't see me, but God's love know.
Lord as I pick my pumpkins;
From my patch with pumpkins filled.
Let your joy be present Lord:
As I see the fruit it yields.
When bringing in the Harvest;
I'll set my pumpkins here and there.
That they would be a blessing
To observers everywhere.

Beddow Farms
Just A Down Home Kind Of Place
This farm has been around for 45 years.
After 45 years Ralph Beddow and his family are still picking pumpkins.
Ralph Beddow said, "I'm proud of the fact that our prices are still some of the best around."
His two sons and daughter inlaws along with his eleven grandchildren, help him and his wife gather the harvest of pumpkins.
The Beddow family also grows and sells flowers starting in the Spring.
Then again, they gather a harvest of Christmas trees.
Stop in and say hello to Ralph and buy some pumpkins. I'm sure it will make his day.
