As St Petersburg residents continue to recover from the impacts of Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton, it’s important to remember that community and resilience shine brightest in challenging times. As we continue to rebuild, let’s come together to embrace the Halloween spirit by supporting our local pumpkin patches. Visiting these spots not only brings a little festive fun back into our lives but also helps our community thrive. Pick out the perfect pumpkin, enjoy family activities, and create lasting memories while supporting local businesses.
Gallagher’s Pumpkin Patch
Located just a short drive from downtown St. Petersburg and Old Northeast, Gallagher’s Pumpkins and Christmas Trees has been a beloved fall tradition for years. Gallagher’s was started over 30 years ago by a local St. Pete family and is still family owned. The patch offers rows and rows of pumpkin varieties, petting zoo, bounce house, and food. One of the main draws here are the ample picturesque spots perfect for family photos, including our family favorite - the rustic old truck. This is an instagramer's dream! New this year is the opportunity to hold a baby otter, the cutest thing!
