Linus waited all night in the most sincere pumpkin patch he could find 🎃
•
He should’ve tried Mill Avenue.
•
Our downtown pumpkin patch is open, and every pumpkin is $10 to $18 🧡 There’s no hay maze, no admission and no drive out of town. It’s just pumpkins on a city sidewalk, sincerely waiting for you.
•
🎃 At the shop during regular hours through Oct 31
🥕 At our Tempe City Hall Farmers Market booth this Sunday, 8 to noon
•
We can’t promise the Great Pumpkin will show up. We can promise a very good one for under $20.
•
Find us at 518 S Mill Ave, Downtown Tempe, proof that lush can exist in the desert 🌿

October on Mill is stacked, and we planned it that way 🎃🦇

📅 The month at a glance
B**r, market booths, pumpkins, two home games, and a whole street of independent shops handing out candy on Halloween. Bring up pics for our community Ofrenda! Swipe for the lineup.
•
🍻 B**r Weekend, Oct 9 to 11
Phantom Fox B**r Co. Tempe has its grand opening on Mill this weekend, and there’s pizza too. Four Peaks Brewing Oktoberfest Oktoberfest is down at Tempe Beach Park, with free admission Sunday. Bring us a receipt from either one and get 10% off plants.

🥕 Tempe City Hall Farmers Market, Sundays Oct 11, 18 and 25th. Tempe City Hall Farmers Market
It launches this Sunday, 8 to noon at City Hall Plaza, rain or shine. Come find our booth for pumpkins and marigolds. Marigolds are the cempasúchil that guides spirits home on Día de los Mu***os ofrendas.
•
🎃 Pumpkin Patch, Oct 11 to 31
Find us at the market every Sunday and at the shop during regular hours. The porch needs one. You know it does.
•
👻 Mill Ave Coalition Trick or Treat, Saturday Oct 31, 4 to 7pm
The independent businesses of Mill Avenue are bringing back a tradition this street used to own. The candy is free, and every kid, every family and every costume is welcome. It’s door to door and owner to owner. This is what a downtown feels like when the people behind the counters decide to run it together.
•
🏈 ASU home games
Oct 10 is Hawaii for the Hall of Fame Game. Oct 24 is Kansas, and it’s a Blackout Game, so wear black and walk over after.

We’re not too proud to ask 🌿
•
Cedar bark over traditional mulch because the antimicrobial and antifungal properties actually matter. Mushroom compost base instead of standard organic because the mycelium network does things that regular compost simply doesn’t. A few other things in there for drainage and nutrients that we’ll leave to your imagination.
•
$6 a bag does 2-3 small pots or one large one.
•
Drop a 🍄 in the comments if you want to know more about why mushroom compost is changing the way we think about indoor soil blends. We’ll spill.

Someone said Mill Avenue is dead. Cute theory. Wrong though.

All family owned. All still here. This is just one block.
•
Starbucks left post-pandemic ☕ Corporations are bailing 🏢 Rent’s too high and the street’s not shoppable when landlords treat it like a spreadsheet instead of a community 💸
•
P.S We can’t wait for 🍦
•
But small businesses? We’re still fighting 💪 For lower rent. For walkability. For the Mill Avenue that actually matters. The one locals built 🏗️
•
One vacant space at the end. Perfect spot for someone who gets it ✨
•
Comment section can stay mad. We’re making this street fun again 🎉

Saturdays are for slowing down.
•
No rushing. No fighting for parking at overcrowded markets. Just people moving through the shop at their own pace, actually looking at things, taking their time.
•
This is what shopping local should feel like. Intentional. Calm. Human-scale.
•
Come spend your Saturday here instead of somewhere that makes you anxious.
