There is nothing more fitting for Halloween than a good pumpkin. Whether carved into a Jack-O-Lantern or baked into a pie, these bright orange gourds are the quintessential signal of the season, and it’s hard to imagine a Halloween without them. Rhode Island is pretty darn great at Halloween if we do say so ourselves, with food, drink, and activities galore, we really make the most of October, and we definitely don’t skimp when it comes to pumpkins. These seven patches are some of our favorite spots to grab a gourd (and maybe some bonus treats as well!)
