Acres of fun 'Eat, drink and get a pumpkin at Bishop farm in Wheatland / Dingler, Nancy [469] [RETROSPECT-2001-469]
Wheatland, I answered the call of my grandchildren, "Can we go pick our own pumpkins?" Being an indulgent grandmother, I wanted to find the greatest pumpkin patch on the West Coast, as long as it was within a day's reach, that is. Serendipitously, a story appeared on the TV about the great pumpkin farm in Wheatland. It was destiny - meant to be. With a little research, I mapped out the path to the glorious Bishop Pumpkin Farm with 72 acres of fun and pumpkins.
