You can pick a pumpkin right off the vine at

Can’t resist a fall photo opp?

Take your pick from tons of pumpkin varieties at
The Great Pumpkin Farm
in Clarence, New York. After you’ve picked your fave, navigate the five acre corn maze, jump on the bouncy pillows, and catch a fright at the haunted Boo Barn.

Skinny Bones Pumpkin Patch
in Blair, Nebraska is as beautiful as it is fun. Pick a pumpkin, visit the giant corn maze, race on the pedal karts, or grab a fresh-baked good or some BBQ. You can also reserve a fire pit for warming up and roasting s’mores.
