If you are tired of the same old Halloween decorations, there is something new to throw in the mix.  An orange pumpkin that can also be considered green. 

With Halloween right around the corner, pumpkins are in high demand. Slowpoke Farm is offering a greener choice when it comes to picking out that perfect pumpkin.

The Hedge family offers more than just fairy tale pumpkins. This past weekend at the farmers market they were selling seasonal squash, along with natural milk. It is a great way to support a healthy environment, as well as local farmers.

If your looking to add a little green to your Halloween then you can head down to the farmers market on North 1st this Saturday morning. Slowpoke Farms will be out at the Abilene Farmers Market across from Frontier Texas this Saturday morning until early afternoon.
