From pumpkin carving to wall climbing, the Bayview will be busy with free events for all ages this weekend.

A handful of community partners such as Nonplus Ultra, Edot, Andrea Baker Consulting, Invest In SF, Love Boat Halloween and developer Jack Tseng have teamed up to produce the neighborhood's first pumpkin patch at 4101 Third St. (at Hudson Avenue).

With pumpkins provided by San Francisco Wholesale and Produce Market, 100% of the proceeds will benefit nonprofit Project Wreckless, which provides tools for life through an immersive curriculum centered around automobile restorations.

Grab your pumpkin and head down the street to the Bayview Opera House for the Resilient Bayview Neighborhood Fest. A free lunch will be provided, along with live music, a climbing wall and a handful of healthy activities, including Golden State Warriors raffle prizes signed by the players.

The race is on. Time to get our hands dirty and take these cars apart. #toolsforlife
