I hadn't considered it this way

Go to a farm. Take a hay ride. Wander through the pumpkin patch with your friends and loved ones. Ponder what you'll carve as you pick the perfect shape to match. Laugh at the oddly shaped gourds. Take some freshly pressed cider home with you and enjoy it cold, mulled with spices, spiked or any combination of those as you carve the pumpkin.

These events mark the time of year and form memories with those you share them with. This is culture.

I have more memories of going to independent farms doing their autumn pumpkin patch activities than I do any of the pumpkins I've carved.

Realtalk, we have one just outside of town. Its not a bad experience just more effort and time than I want to put up with now that I'm on my own for a jack-o-lanturn. I have decorations and participate in candy handouts, but I usually forgot the pumpkin. Apartment living in the US means nothing to do with it as it gets soggy after 9 days.

The new other half wants to go though so I just might end up doing hay rides this year haha.
