The 15th Annual Great Glass Pumpkin Patch®
Celebrating its 15th anniversary, it is the largest glass pumpkin patch in California, featuring 8,000 hand-blown glass pumpkins crafted by 35 prominent glass artisans.

From bold, contemporary earthy tones to delicate and ornate with iridescent accents, these glass art pumpkins are perfect for Halloween or Thanksgiving, yet beautiful enough to display year-round.
