For families in , it's an easy way to enjoy a favorite fall tradition close to home while making a difference through a simple pumpkin purchase.

A Cypress Pumpkin Patch That Gives Back

Located at 20155 Cypresswood Drive in Cypress, TX 77433, Good Shepherd Church has transformed its grounds into a seasonal pumpkin patch where families can pick out pumpkins for decorating, carving or displaying at home.

What makes this particular pumpkin patch special is where the proceeds go. Pumpkin sales benefit two organizations serving people facing difficult circumstances: Boys and Girls Country in Hockley and Camp Hope in Houston.

Boys and Girls Country is a nonprofit organization in northwest Harris County that provides a stable home environment, care and support for children and young adults who need it. Camp Hope, operated by the PTSD Foundation of America, provides residential support and recovery services for veterans experiencing combat-related post-traumatic stress.

By purchasing a pumpkin, visitors can help support programs that serve children and military veterans throughout the Houston region.

Free Trunk or Treat, Games and Family Activities on October 25

In addition to the pumpkin patch, Good Shepherd Church is hosting a free Trunk or Treat celebration on Sunday, October 25, 2026, featuring activities designed especially for children and families.

The event will include decorated vehicles handing out candy, games, a music concert, face painting and story reading for children. All activities are free, making it an accessible fall outing for families looking for Halloween events in Cypress without an admission cost.
