Brett & James

Hello Pumpkins was founded by two full-time firefighters serving Johnson County, Kansas. Around the firehouse, we’ve become known for one thing: creating standout seasonal displays.

Brett oversees logistics and operations, using heavy specialized equipment to safely transport and place thousands of pounds of pumpkins, hay, and seasonal décor throughout the community. James manages the business side of the company, ensuring every customer receives a seamless experience from booking to installation. We both decorate porches and houses. We both have kids and are doing these side hustles to pay for K-State and PItt State university for our daughters.

We are also the owners of Plaza Lights (www.plazalights.net), a Christmas lighting company trusted by more than 280 seasonal customers. Through Plaza Lights, we’ve spent years helping homeowners transform their properties for the holidays, and that experience inspired us to create Hello Pumpkins.

We believe your home should look its best in every season, you work hard for it. That’s why we created a completely hands-off service: choose your package, select your installation week, and let us take care of the rest. From design and delivery to setup and removal, we handle every detail so you can simply enjoy the season.

P.S. You better be changing your smoke detector batteries.
