Fall is officially in the air… have you started decorating for this most sacred and highly anticipated time of year? One of the best decor options is, of course, the pumpkin, which can be found at your local grocery store, farmers market, or discount chain store. While you can always find a pumpkin at one of these convenient locations, it isn’t nearly as fun as choosing the perfect one at Colorado’s charming Anderson Farms:
Located in Erie, Anderson Farms is billed as being Colorado’s largest fall family fun destination.
