To celebrate the arrival of fall, Starbucks is hosting a Pumpkin Patch experience at Third Street Promenade on Saturday.

Members of the community are invited to visit the pumpkin patch and enjoy a caricaturist, local musicians, free pumpkins to decorate and pumpkin carving demonstrations. The country-style event also will feature complimentary samples of Starbucks’ pumpkin spice latte and pumpkin crème.

There will be 300-pound carved pumpkin, pumpkin decorating with the Boys & Girls Clubs of Santa Monica, pumpkin carving demonstrations, a caricaturist and live banjo music.

From 6 a.m. to 7 a.m., the 300-pound pumpkin arrives at Third Street Promenade. From 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., the pumpkin patch will be open to public. Car-tunes: When animation meets musician
