Before you go
A short checklist so the trip feels easy — especially helpful for first-time u-pick visits in Illinois.
- Bring closed-toe shoes, sun protection, water, and containers unless the farm supplies them.
- Call or check the website for today’s picking conditions — mud, rain, and sold-out fields are common.
- Wear clothes you don’t mind getting stained; berry juice and field mud travel home with you.
- Cash still helps at smaller stands even when cards are accepted.

“What a Wonderful experience at Ditmar Farms. A huge Pumpkin patch and Apple orchard. I actually had fun here with all the fun events they offered. They had hay rides, gord slingshot, tractor drives, a very big corn maze that I got lost in. It was a lot of fun. The weather was real nice. They also had a Two man Band playing that was pretty good. It was just good to walk around and enjoy the open scenery here. It's very Family oriented and Children love this place. We got to pick some pumpkins and they also had apple picking as well. We had apple cider donuts and an apple cider slushy at the snack shack. I will definitely be back!! Thanks Ditmar Farms.”
“This is our favorite pumpkin patch in the area! It's a beautiful drive in the fall, they have an amazing assortment of Pumpkins that are reasonably priced, and it's never crowded. Plus, the haunted hayride is the perfect amount of scary for the kids.”
“Just returned from a wonderful farm tour adventure. Mike was a great driver and tour guide. I highly recommend visiting the farm and seeing all they have to offer. Apple orchards, corn fields, creek crossings, pumpkin patches, yummy sweet corn.”
“It was so great we went 2 consecutive days. We picked apples and pumpkins on the first day, then went fishing on property. You should definitely visit the farm. They're great, friendly people who own/run the operation. Certainly worth a visit!!”
“What a great place! Hay rides, animals, a great pumpkin patch and a cute little snack shack! Everyone was super nice and it was incredible to hear it's been ran by the same family for 170 years, if that's not American idk what is!”
“What a treat to have such a great place for a fall outing. A great variety of pumpkins to pick that goes on for miles and more than enough activities-hayride, animals, food-to entertain the kids.”
“Wonderful orchard. The corn maze is fun. The donuts were great. The playground is a great way to wear the kids out before the drive home. The drive out here is beautiful in the fall.”
“We had fun going through the corn maze! We bought a couple of pumpkins and took a hayride. The apple cider donut were delish!!!”
