Whether you’re looking to decompress after working all weekend, or looking for new people to work with SHIFTIE is where you want to be on July 16th.

We’re launching a new event in Arts District DTLA with a focus on NETWORKING. So many industries we interface with: Film, Television, Music, Art, Hospitality etc. have not fully recovered from the pandemic, which has rightfully led to the resurgence of the Labor Movement, and unfortunately left many talented hard working people looking for opportunities.

We aim to bring all these people together in a vibrant environment to foster and facilitate collaboration and growth.

Pumpkin Season Spectacular: Discover Pumpkin Patches in Los Angeles

People often think of Los Angeles as a silver screen city, home of Hollywood glamor and star-studded boulevards. Still, if you visit during autumn, it turns into a spectacular pumpkinville! From the simple pick-your-own spots to the extravagant Halloween events and attractions, a pumpkin patch in LA can satisfy everyone’s preference.

Here, we will learn about the best pumpkin patches in the city- perfect for getting the ideal pumpkin and spending the day having fun!

Mr. Bones Pumpkin Patch

Picture this: You are walking into Mr. Bones Pumpkin Patch, located at the prestigious end of Beverly Hills, and the moment you enter the place, you find yourself amidst rows and columns and heaps of pumpkins of every shade, color, and size.

It is like walking into a fairy tale in the autumn season! But wait, there is more – it is not just picking pumpkins that one can engage in. It's about making memories. Everything from silly photo shenanigans to summer activities for the youngsters is captured.

So gather your friends, put on your autumn mood, and let Mr. Bones Pumpkin Patch become an unforgettable family experience. I promise you, you won't regret it!

Tapia Brothers Farm

Founded in 1973 by the Tapia brothers, this seasonal crop and vegetable farm in Encino becomes a pumpkin lovers’ haven during September-October.

It has all kinds of pumpkins, gourds, and squashes that one cannot even imagine. A pumpkin festival includes a corn maze, probably a pony ride, and several food suppliers annually.

Tapia Brothers Farm is an ideal place to get a real-life feel of a farm, even within the city.

A Bounty of Pumpkins

At the Cal Poly Pomona Pumpkin Festival, attendees are greeted with a remarkable sight: more than 70,000 pumpkins are grown side by side for picking.

The many options guarantee that guests can quickly choose the best pumpkin for their purposes, whether for carving, cooking, or just for a beautiful look on the porch.

Exploring Educational Findings and Activity Ideas

The festival also includes many educational exhibits and workshops focused on agriculture far beyond the pumpkin patch.

Among them are games and installations that are exciting and educational for the guests, who will learn about various aspects of farming and its relevance to our lives.

It is an excellent and educational segment that augments the festival's value and ensures that viewers are entertained for a significant reason.

Farmer’s Market

In addition to pumpkins, the festival includes activities such as a farmer’s market, where people can source fresh produce from the area. This is the best chance to take home pumpkins and the fruits of the local farmer’s hard work!

Forneris Farms

Forneris Farms is an example of a traditional pumpkin patch with a family-focused theme. The farm's design includes a corn maze, a tractor-trained train, and more games and activities for children. The ambiance of the farm is friendly, and the produce they offer is first-rate, thus making it possible to take anyone there and have a good time on a fall day.

Navigate the Giant Corn Maze and Enjoy Train Rides

One of the main draws of Forneris Farms is its sprawling corn maze, a challenging yet enjoyable activity suitable for all ages. Additionally, visitors can hop aboard train rides, offering a delightful way to soak in the scenic views of the farm while having fun.

Embracing a Warm and Hospitable Environment

Above all, Forneris Farms prides itself on its welcoming atmosphere, ensuring every visitor feels at home.

Whether you're a regular guest or a first-time visitor, the friendly ambiance adds an extra layer of enjoyment to your experience, making your visit memorable and pleasant, regardless of your background or position.

Irvine Park Railroad Pumpkin Patch

Irvine Park Railroad Pumpkin Patch is a trendy pumpkin patch in Orange County primarily because of its location and additional things to do. It has a train ride, hay ride, pumpkin patch, and children's activities: face painting and familiar games like darts. The beautiful park-like surroundings make it a perfect place to have the family lunch after their fill of pumpkin picking in the morning.

Enchanting Ambiance

The pumpkin patch has a distinguished yet warm atmosphere, where one can get lost in the aesthetics of the space. Since pumpkins are plentiful on the ground, families and friends can have a good time throughout the day.

Traditional Fall Activities

Embrace the spirit of autumn with traditional activities that promise endless fun for all ages.

Hop aboard the train for a leisurely ride through the park, soaking in the sights and sounds of the season. Alternatively, opt for a hayride, a timeless favorite that adds nostalgia to your pumpkin patch adventure.

Family-Friendly Activities

Face painting is missing, as are carnival games such as the lottery, raffles, hula hoops, and so much more.

Calabasas Pumpkin Festival

The Calabasas Pumpkin Festival is an annual event held every October; Juan Bautista de Anza Park becomes an autumn wonderland.

Live Entertainment

It offers a list of local bands, dancing troupes, and performers, thus entertaining the guests all through the night.

Marketplace

It is packed with street and market vendors selling home-baked goods at craft fairs, art shows, pumpkin spice shops, and food stands.

Lombardi Ranch

The Lombardi Ranch is a beautiful sight, especially during the fall in the Santa Clarita area; the place provides fun for every family member.

U-Pick Pumpkins

Pumpkins at Lombardi Ranch are left to mature on the vine until they reach optimal ripeness. This ensures visitors can select from various freshly harvested pumpkins, each bursting with flavor and vibrancy.

Visitors enjoy wandering through the vast farmland, where rows of pumpkin vines stretch as far as the eye can see. With ample space to roam and explore, guests can take their time selecting the perfect pumpkin for their needs.

Scarecrow Contest

It displays residents' creativity in fashioning them, and the voter is given a ballot to enable them to choose the most creative one.

Imagine telling somebody in 1995 that one day, Snoop Dog and Flavor Flav would both be beloved American icons highly associated with the Olympic Games. With Snoop acting as an official NBC commentator and carrying the actual Olympic torch in his 50s.

This May 4 doc screening at the Alex Theatre in Glendale should be quite the LA "happening" and a unique experience. Below are some highlights from the event description (click link above for full details): "The Los Angeles Premiere live screening of Gary Hustwit's new generative documentary, created live in real time. Cocktail reception with DJs and cash bar following the screening and Q&A."

"Visionary musician and artist Brian Eno — known for producing David Bowie, U2, Talking Heads, among many others; pioneering the genre of ambient music; and releasing over 40 solo and collaboration albums — reveals his creative processes in this groundbreaking generative documentary: a film that’s different every time it’s shown." "The version of “Eno" shown at this event will be created live and will never be seen again."

Eras Tour Film premiere | Los Angeles, CA | October 11, 2023

Oscar de la Renta 'Cutout Floral Gown' - $11,990.00 $5,995.00

In my predictions post for this premiere on the TSS Patreon I selected a different dress by Oscar de la Renta (a longtime favourite designer of Taylors) and noted that my ideal styling with said gown would be a "red lip and pinned faux bob with tons of bangles and chandelier diamond earrings ... for an old Hollywood glam feel."

Needless to say, I support and love this outing.

It's dramatic and ladylike while also honouring and extending the #1989Blue precedent she set during the final stages of the U.S. 2023 leg of the Eras Tour. Dressing to a colour palette is a perfect connector and reminder to bridge both the event at hand of the concert tour movie and her most pressing upcoming record with 1989 (Taylor's Version) set to release on October 27.

All in, this is a beautiful gown and perhaps one of her best appearances ever. The elegant styling (dainty rings and eye-popping matching diamond tennis necklace and bracelet) were the perfect choices. And maybe I'm just jealous that Taylor is someone who can pull off blue eyeshadow (any other brown eyed girls who were told that blue makeup would make your eyes pop and subsequently did not look like Taylor Swift when you tried a powder blue shadow look? anyone? just me?).

Designer Fernando Garcia also noted during the Resort 2023 collection's presentation that "cut-outs have become a go-to for our customer". The ones on this gown feel like an organic nod to the spliced crop tops that were signature to the original 1989 fashion run in 2014. But here, they're more organic and integrated into the design - a natural part of fully blossoming some might say. And if you missed the subtle cut-out nod, there's always the faux bob that might double take you into believing you were back in 2014/15 and also nods to the messy, slightly undone style seen on the 1989 TV cover.

As backstory, it should surprise no one that this particular collection happened to debut on June 13, 2022 at (where else) the New York Botanical Garden.

Worn with: Cartier necklace + Anabela Chan bracelets, Cartier studs + Cathy Waterman + Akillis + Anabela Chan rings, and Giuseppe Zanotti heels
