WHY DO WE HAVE A PUMPKIN PATCH?
Trinity offers this fundraiser to the community to support local and
global charities. The pumpkins arrive on Saturday, September 30 and
we will open our patch when the pumpkins are unloaded that day. We
will receive a second shipment on Saturday, October 14.
All sales from every pumpkin purchased from our patch
goes to charities.
In 2023,
YOU will be supporting these charities:
Cancer Association of Anderson
Clean Start
First Light (formerly Foothills Alliance)
Frontline (formerly Officers Christian Fellowship)
Haven of Rest Women’s Ministries
Rebuild Upstate
South Main Chapel & Mercy Center
Since our patch began in 2003,
more than $250,000 dollars has been donated to charities.
Admission to the patch is free.
Pumpkins range in price from seventy-five cents to $55 (for the huge ones!).
Every penny of our profit from the pumpkin sales goes to charity.
The more pumpkins sold,
the higher the percentage of funds we get to keep to give to the charities.
We thank everyone for their support.
Every penny raised from our BBQ on Saturday, October 21 (4:00 – 6:00Pm) will also go to the charities. Buy tickets from the church office or the cashier in the pumpkin patch. Join us in the patch that day form 3:00 – 5:00 for Cane Creek Bluegrass Band!
(pulled pork, slaw, baked beans, bread, beverage, dessert for $10)
HOW?
The pumpkins come from an organization called Pumpkins USA. It is a fundraising organization that partners with the Navajo Indians in New Mexico. They grow and load the pumpkins onto trucks that deliver them to us. This organization sets the prices for the pumpkins. We do not have the option to discount the prices. If we did, we would be shortchanging the amount that we give to the charities that were selected to receive funds as well as the amount sent to Pumpkins USA to cover the labor costs, shipping, and administrative costs. The more pumpkins sold, the more we get to keep for the charities and Trinity does not keep a penny of it. If we sell over $30,000 for example, we get to keep 40% for the charities.
If you have any questions, feel free to contact us.
We look forward to seeing you in the patch!
