Going to a pumpkin patch during the fall months is a tradition for many families in our area. It is a long-awaited day for my kids. As soon as the leaves begin yellow and scarlet to turn I hear the question, "When are we going to the pumpkin patch?!"
Pumpkin patches are outside and a great socially distanced activity. Before visiting any patch be sure to read their guidelines and policies regarding Covid.

Pick pumpkins, enjoy hayrides and explore all Roca Berry Farm has to offer. Opening Day: September 18, open every day. Website
