Before you go
A short checklist so the trip feels easy — especially helpful for first-time u-pick visits in Iowa.
- 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.

“If you want a pumpkin patch to take the kids to that is fun and reasonably priced this is the place. They have multiple bounce houses as well as a very large bounce pad, firepits, pumpkin cannon, apple cannon (that you can shoot), throwing bags set up in a few spots, a big corn pit set up that the kids can play in, a tractor ride to the pumpkin fields, a little lawn tractor train ride for the kids, some various animals both farm and exotic (llama, pigs, donkey, peacocks etc.), and lots of other kid friendly games. There is also a nice kitchen you can get some food and drinks at. Our kids love it.”
“This place was great! Went with my daughter on a school field trip. There was tons to do and it nice and spread out so even though there were a lot of people on the trip it didn't feel like we were on top of each other. Great place for any age child. There was a huge corn maze we didn't make it to because we ran out of time. The pumpkin cannon was awesome. There were animals to pet and birds in large cages. My daughter loved finding the cool feathers. Would absolutely go back again.”
“What a GREAT place to take the kids for a fun fall activity. Plenty of fun things to do for the kids. Jumping things, animals, barrel ride, HUGE corn maze, pick your own pumpkins and other fun stuff. Great snacks and wonderful firepit area to sit and enjoy the day.”
