Thousands of pounds of pumpkins are on their way to a North Little Rock church.

They are set to arrive at 1:30 Sunday afternoon at First United Methodist Church on J.F.K. Boulevard. 

In what has become an annual tradition, dozens of volunteers will unload pumpkins and fill the patch as the church kicks off the fall season with color and fun.

Proceeds from the Pumpkin Patch support the youth program at the church, which includes 6th-12th graders from the North Little Rock community.

The Pumpkin Patch will remain open every day of the week until October 31 (Halloween), for shopping and photo opportunities. 

In past years, the pumpkin patch has attracted visits by children from area day care centers attending story time in the patch.
