Alpine Acres' Gardens & Pumpkins Alpine Acres Sanctuary Farm's three-acre biological gardens produce an abundant variety of fruits, vegetables, and herbs year-round, all grown without chemicals or pesticides. This fall, the gardens are especially colorful with edible pumpkins in an array of shapes, sizes, and varieties, including Cinderella, Musquee de Provence, Galeux d'Esynes, Long Island Cheese, Red Kuri, Jarrahdale, and Gusto de Horno. Seasonal harvests also include peppers, corn, Swiss chard, beets, cucumbers, squash, broccolini, tomatoes, zucchini, and fresh herbs, with the farm's popular lettuces also back. Fresh produce is available at the on-site Farm Stand, with proceeds helping care for Alpine Acres' nearly 200 rescued animals — some of whom enjoy a share of the garden's bounty, too. alpineacressanctuaryfarm.org ranchandcoast.com 66 OCTOBER 2026 RANCH & COAST MAGAZINE
