Planning a pumpkin trip
How it works
Pumpkin farms usually price per pumpkin or by weight at a gate, and many run a wider day out alongside the field — wagon rides, a corn maze, food stands.
Weekends in October are the busiest days of the entire picking calendar. Weekday afternoons are quieter, and the field is far less picked over early in the month.
What to bring
- Cash for gate admission and extras, which are often separate from the pumpkins
- Boots — pumpkin fields are the muddiest picking you'll do all year
- Warm layers for late-October mornings
