This year’s JCC Pumpkin Patch fund raising has been successful in raising money for the Juravinski Hospital and Cancer Centre.
Scotlynn SweetPac Growers raised $21,470.
Austin’s Pumpkiin Patch added enough to bring its four-years donation total to $153,000.
This year’s event was hosted at Austin’s Farm Market on Cockshutt Road in Norfolk, and was supported by local farmers and suppliers such as Peacock Farms, R. & A. Kukielka Farms, and Campbell Farms .
Durka praised the teamwork, saying, “having a team is massive here. We couldn’t do it on our own.”
Funds raised this year will be directed towards the purchase of apheresis machines to support patients in the Hematology Unit at the Juravinski Hospital and Cancer Centre.
