Updates for this weekend...

Due to the effect the weather has had on our corn maze, we have made the decision to close it for the season. BUT...

We still have LOTS of pumpkins to choose from for carving and other great fall produce for decorating! It sounds like the sun might shine this weekend, so it will be fun!

We will be serving the following for food on Saturday:
BBQ's, nachos with cheese, apples with homemade caramel sauce, and bars...
We'll have hot cocoa, hot cider and coffee to warm you up!

Don't forget to come and have the Sunday pie special which is pumpkin pie and coffee for $1.99!

Top Ten Reasons to Visit Potters Way for the Last Weekend of the Season...

Well, you'd never guess this is a picture of a pumpkin farm, now would you? We can hardly believe it ourselves! Again, such a great reminder that we are not in control, so when life hands you lemons, you make lemonade!

Or in our case, you serve hot cocoa and hot cider! (Which we'll be serving this weekend and is the #10 reason to visit.)

Our barn may not be heated, but the produce inside is still beautiful and it's dry! (#9) Just wear an extra layer or 2, and it will still be fun!




We are running a couple of specials for our last weekend....
Fall wreaths are 20% off!! (#8)




Sunday Pumpkin Pie Special: $1.99 for pie and coffee (#7)
(You can't beat that...even on a chilly day!)


We live in North Dakota, so you never can tell what the weather may do! Even if it doesn't warm up for the weekend, you should still come and see us and take a look in the barn and the shop! We still have great things for sale!(#6)

#5. Dorothy is still out in the corn maze and needs help finding her way home...

#4. While we might not have really had a fall, we can't just give up! If you decorate your home for fall, it will feel like fall!

#3. You can brag to your relatives that live in warmer climates that you actually went out into a field and picked your pumpkin. Then you knocked the snow off of it.

#2. Are you seriously going to skip carving pumpkins for Halloween because of the weather? We're tougher than that and it's tradition!

And the #1 reason to come and spend a little time at Potters Way
this weekend is...







It's the experience of being together with friends and family that makes everything worthwhile! No matter how young or how old, how big or how small, there's something for everyone at Potters Way!

Baby, it's cold outside!

Despite the below normal chill in the air, we will be open this weekend, for those willing to brave the elements!

Again, as a reminder, bring your boots! It's still pretty muddy out in the corn maze and pumpkin patch!

Just because it's cold, doesn't mean everyone still won't need pumpkins for carving and decorating for Halloween! We have plenty left and we'd be willing to bet there's one with your name on it! Come and see us soon!

Our recent visitors...

The Scarlett O'Hatters came out to Potters Way one evening last week and had a wonderful time! We appreciate the pictures you sent and hope you'll come and visit us again soon!



DiAnn Sigafoos from Ellendale came out last weekend with her boys and some friends. She shared a few of the moments of their fun afternoon!



Having fun picking our gourds in the barn!



Makes you wonder how we ever operated this place without those special black kitties?

Thanks for sharing and remember, please let us know if you have pictures you'd like to share! We LOVE sharing with everyone!

Rain, rain....go away!

Due to our recent monsoon-like rain, we will not be opening the corn maze this weekend and the wagon ride to the pumpkin patch will be unavailable also.

We will still have the animals available to view and we'll have a full barn full of produce! The kids can still play in the straw bales and we'll have our normal concessions available in the shop.

As always, we rely on God to provide, so we hope you'll still come out and enjoy what's available! Pray for sunshine!

Bring your galoshes....

Or your rainboots, your overshoes, or even your pair of beat up old tennis shoes. We hope you'll make the trek out to see us this weekend, but if you do, it's pretty wet from our recent rains, so we just encourage everyone to wear shoes that can get a little dirty and Mom won't mind! We'll see you soon!
