Every year, First Parish of Westwood holds a pumpkin sale, with net proceeds going to benefit charities such as New Life Furniture Bank, Greater Boston Food Bank, Rosie's Place, and Lifeworks' Harris Fund. The pumpkins you buy here are Pumpkins with a Purpose. 

 Children can wander among possible selections of different sizes, and lingering for photos is welcome.

The patch is open from Saturday, October 14, 2023, through the end of the month, on weekends and some weekday afternoons.  Hours are:

• Saturdays: 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
• Sundays: 11:15 a.m. (approximate time; opens when Sunday service ends) to 5:00 p.m.  
• Weekday Afternoons: open when volunteer staffing is available. Look for the "Now Open" flag.
