My friends at Eatwell Farm (where we get our Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) shares from) asked me to stop by their Pumpkin Carving Party a few weeks ago and take some photos of the day. Just to remind you, these are the same people behind the Tomato Sauce Canning Party – also known as one of the most fun weekends ever. It was such a lovely day I couldn’t resist sharing them here as well!
The party was located at Second Act on Haight Street in San Francisco and it was so great to connect with Eatwell Crew – Nigel, Lorraine and Emily. It was also a pleasure to watch people of all ages have the simple joy of carving a pumpkin. It’s just one of those simple acts of joy that allow you to feel completely unburdened and free – like jumping in a puddle or stealing some frosting off a cake with your finger.
Needless to say, everyone was all smiles, thanks to the pumpkins and the pumpkin softserve ice cream. If you’re in San Francisco, the next Eatwell event is the Harvest Market on November 23rd. Get your holiday produce and meet the people behind the farm! Eatwell CSA Members will also be selling their home crafted goods, including bacon, soaps, vegan baked goods, ceramics and jewelry.

Disclosure: I was paid for this post with fresh local and organic produce, which is basically the best thing ever.
This sounds like so much fun! My kids would love it!
It was totally family friendly! I really like the idea of exposing your kids to where their food comes from at an early age!
Fresh local produce is the best! I’ve always wanted to jump into a CSA delivery but never have. Thanks for the heads up on the next event.
You should come with me! I’m going to the Harvest Fest this weekend!
Looks so fun!!!
It was a blast!
