According to a story from Best Life, pumpkins may be in short supply for the Halloween season this year, and those for sale will be more expensive than usual.
Why the shortage? Some pumpkin patches closed down due to the pandemic, and climate change is also a big factor – with flooding in parts of the country and drought in others affecting crops. Another part of the problem is the lack of people being available to work the fields and farms.
Most retailers should still have pumpkins available if you want to grab them, but they may be a little harder to come by as we get closer to Halloween.
