Shared on Facebook by Chipman’s Pumpkin Patch, the unique attraction runs every weekend in October, right next to Sabbathday Lake Shaker Village in New Gloucester. Before any adults get too giddy and start bouncing around the house, the inflatable pumpkin patch is just for kids. But that doesn’t mean adults can’t stay and dream about what it would be like to be a kid again.
