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

“I recently visited the Great Pumpkin Patch, and I can't express enough how wonderful our experience was! As a caretaker of a child in a wheelchair, I often worry about accessibility at such events, but the staff here went above and beyond to ensure that our visit was both enjoyable and memorable. From the moment we arrived, the team was incredibly accommodating, providing assistance and making sure all areas were accessible. They were friendly, attentive, and truly seemed to care about making every child's experience special. Thank you to the amazing staff for their kindness and dedication! Highly recommend to everyone!”

“I took my 2 grandsons (8 and 12) here for the first time today. I cannot tell you how much love seems to have been put into the place! It felt like one huge family reunion that had been planned down to the smallest details. There was something for everyone, and the prices were very reasonable. We will definitely be back and I have already told several people about it. Thank you for a wonderful afternoon!”

“This is our 2nd year going to this pumpkin patch. There is just something to do your entire time there. The patch is large, spacious and well kept. The staff isn’t the most friendliest and they don’t take cards (so TAKE CASH). I believe they do have an ATM on site. There is a moon walk area, train ride, park, small petting zoo, & a hay ride to the pumpkin patch with is on the property as well. A pumpkin is included with admission. There are seating areas with picnic style tables (BEWARE of the yellow jackets) with a few different options for food & snacks or you can bring your own food. We brought lunch both times so I’m unsure of how the food is. We did purchase apples & caramel dip which was $4 I believe. There is a little gift/souvenir shop on site. This time around there was a balloon artist there (prices varied) and a face painter (I believe it was $7). There are many photo opportunities on site. Overall we had a good time and enjoyed ourselves.”
