Just down the mountain and around the curve is Burt's Pumpkin Farm. In October the weekend traffic at Burt's is crazy with all the folks from Atlanta, but on a Monday afternoon it was nice and quiet.
At Burt's you can shop for the perfect pumpkin, take a hayride pulled by a John Deere tractor through the mountain trails, or try your luck at the corn maze.
Better hurry, the stock of potential jack-o-lanterns is dwindling and the prices are dropping. I wonder what they do with all those pumpkins after October 31st? Mrs. Burt will probably be making lots of pumpkin pies and pumpkin bread.
