            CLT Out & About: Halloween Edition
              Looking for the authentic pumpkin patch experience? Look no farther than Carrigan Farms. Conducted every October since 1975, our tractor-drawn pumpkin patch hayrides might be old fashioned, but we assure you they are the real deal. At Carrigan Farms we GROW tens of thousands of pumpkins every year. Each and every hayride includes a trip to the pumpkin patch, where kids of all ages (adults too!) each pick their very own pumpkin. Pumpkins range in size from 2-20 pounds +/-, so everyone can find the size that's right for them. Cost of our hayride on weekends is $10.00 per person for everyone ages 2 and above. Young babies 23 months and under are free; however, they do not get a pumpkin. When: Sun., Oct. 21st, 9am-4pm Where: Carrigan Farms, 1261 Oak Ridge Farm Highway Cost:$10 per person Age: Family-friendly
