Seven free patches round San Antonio

Alamo Heights UMC is the nearest, ten minutes from downtown. St. Margaret’s Episcopal published the widest price range, from two tiny pumpkins for $1 up to $25–30, and Universal City priced most of its pumpkins between $3 and $30. The Patch at Winding Branch Ranch, 35 minutes north in Bulverde, asked only for a donation. Windcrest, Oxford and Helotes Hills never published a closing date.

Where these free listings come from

Universal City’s details come from the city’s website and the team behind the patch; Winding Branch Ranch is free but needs a reserved ticket. The churches were read on their own pages or answered by email. How we check.
