🎃🍂 A Day of Learning—and Fun—at Schaefer Pumpkin Patch! 🍂🎃

Today, Fayette County CEO had the pleasure of spending time with Ryan Schaefer of Schaefer Pumpkin Patch in Beecher City, and what a wonderful experience it was!

Ryan shared valuable lessons about what it takes to operate a family-owned business, from the day-to-day work and dedication required to keep an operation like this running to the importance of creating an experience that brings people together. He reminded us that while business takes hard work, it’s also important to have fun along the way!

Our students also had the opportunity to explore all that Schaefer Pumpkin Patch has to offer—from slides and hay bales to all kinds of fun activities and, of course, LOTS of animals! 🦊🦙🐐🦃 We even got to see some pretty unique animals, including foxes and emus!

It was a fantastic day filled with learning, laughter, hands-on experiences, and a whole lot of fun. We are so grateful to Ryan Schaefer for welcoming Fayette County CEO and sharing his knowledge, his business, and his passion with our students!

Thank you, Ryan, for a great day at Schaefer Pumpkin Patch! 🎃🧡
