I hope you and your family will take some time to enjoy Fall Fun and explore some of the nearby Pumpkin Patches. Be sure to check on-line, or call ahead to confirm operating hours. Anytime you can go on a weekday, you will have less crowds and often prices on certain things like parking or admission are lower on weekdays.
Visiting a pumpkin patch or local farm during Fall is a wonderful tradition to have as a family. My boys will sometimes complain about going because they know I am going to take 1,000 pictures, and as they are getting older we have been quite a bit. I remind them that they always end up having a great time and are happy once they get there. I try and get out of my box and visit a farm or pumpkin patch we haven't been to even if I have to drive a little farther. Our kiddos are growing up so fast and in this technology focused world we live in, it is nice to remind them of the simple joys like a good old fashioned hay ride.
If you need another great reason to go, visiting these nearby pumpkin patches or farms is a great way to support our local farmers and family owned businesses. Go pick a day you can visit soon, because October will fly by, put it on your calendar now and ENJOY!
