He made his visit to the patch on his motorcycle. Gail and David
Sasse gave him a personal tour on their golf cart.
He commented that he hadn’t ever seen an adult tricycle. That
looked like fun! We took a tour of the pumpkin patch field. Governor
Rauner loves pumpkin pie and they showed him the Dickerson Field
pumpkin. He took a recipe for Gail’s Famous Pumpkin Pie. He stated
that Illinois is a top producer of canned pumpkin.
Governor Rauner purchased Sasse’s Apiary honey. He really enjoys
local honey. He visited with folks at the patch and posed for
numerous pictures.
He enjoyed the popcorn and apple cider slushie with the customers at
the patch.
