Pumpkin Picking at Demarest Farms

A perfect day for pumpkin picking! Our very special friends at The Bank of New York Mellon hosted a trip for the East Harlem Head Start program to go visit a farm out in New Jersey.

30 preschoolers were treated to a morning of hay rides and pumpkin-patch frolicking. Everyone got to take a pumpkin home.

Thanks to The Bank of New York Mellon, our Volunteer Services, the East Harlem Head Start staff, Demarest Farms , and everyone who made this wonderful adventure possible for the children.

We can't wait to do it again next year!
