Pumpkin Time in Ballantyne (For Now)
Don’t have your jack-o-lanterns ready yet? Charlotte magazine recently tapped Hall Family Farm in Ballantyne as the best pumpkin patch in Charlotte, so there’s no excuse. By summer, it’s a strawberry-picking field; by fall, there are orange orbs at the farm, which has been owned by the same family for more than 70 years. This may be the last year, however, as the acreage—a prime development site in an expanding submarket—is up for sale.
