"It's something we have to contend with, but as farmers we expect that," Susan Dell'Osso, Dell'Osso Family Farm co-owner, said. "So we just take what comes and roll with it."
"Luckily, most of the pumpkins are already harvested," Dell'Osso said. "So, generally, the stores like to have pumpkins early in October, late September. So, if it's really just one day of rain, it should be fine. If it lingers and then it gets hot, it can actually get moldy, so the pumpkins, it's not good for them to sit in the mud."
"You just got to wait it out and see what happens because it always works out in the end," Dell'Osso said. "So I would say, don't panic. It looks like it's going to be one day of rain and hopefully the rest of the season is going to be fine."
"We have everything weatherproof. We have a lot of gravel and a lot of walkways on site," Del'Osso said. "So, pretty much everything is still accessible and the parking lot is paved, so we make it through the rain pretty easily."
"We are a local family-owned business," Davis said. "We love what we do. We take a lot of pride into what we do every year. We are looking to make some improvements and we just appreciate everybody that comes to our pumpkin patch and to come visit us because it's something we do for the families here in Tracy and the surrounding areas."
"It's really near and dear to us," Dell'Osso said. "And to share this experience with all the visitors who come, it's great. Twenty-nine years, you see, generations have come."
"It's fall," Dell'Osso said. "It's the end of the year but the beginning of a new season and God kind of puts that nice, cool air out there, so it just feels like renewal."
"I guess we take it for granted that we see pumpkins everywhere, and it's always available," Moreno-Hunt said. "But, it does make us more appreciative of what we have here and what's available to us."
"The best of luck to the farmers and protecting the crops for the season," Andraca said. "And we're appreciative of everything they do to have a crop of pumpkins every year."
Along with pumpkins, Dell'Osso Family Farm and Golden State Family Farm have a variety of activities for families to enjoy together.
