It's PUMPKIN SEASON.

Trader Joe's has wrap-around lines, the crisp morning air, and our weekends are filled with football and friends. We’re incredibly fortunate here in the South Puget Sound to have several amazing pumpkin patches hosted by local and family-owned farms. There are many options for this fun Fall activity! Here are some of our favorite spots:


๐ŸŽƒ Turnbull Farm in Lakebay

Situated in the heart of the Key Peninsula, Turnbull Farm is a charming destination where you can go pick out your own pumpkins and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere. In addition to their pumpkin patch, the farm is home to farm animals and beautiful gardens. Turnbull Farms also has many seasonal offerings, including workshops (learn how to make a wreath!) and outdoor yoga and Pilates classes. They are open on Saturdays and Sundays throughout October, and you can find more information on their Facebook and Instagram pages.



๐ŸŽƒ Maris Farms in Buckley

Maris Farms in Buckley hosts the incredible Maris Farms Fall Festival all month long in October, and a LOT is going on here from morning ‘til night time! There are all kinds of fun daytime activities like a corn maze, a pumpkin patch, live pig and duck races, train and wagon rides, an animal barn, catch and release trout fishing, ziplines, and more, and then there are the “haunted” offerings to explore. There is a scary, immersive 35-minute haunted experience, and you can learn more about all the different ticket options here. Follow Maris Farms on Facebook and Instagram for the most recent information. To plan your visit, check out MarisFarms.com.



๐ŸŽƒ Knutson Farms in Sumner

Knutson Farms was started in the 1930s, and what once began as a small rhubarb and flower farming venture has grown into the incredible operation it is today! In addition to growing rhubarb and cut flowers, Knutson Farms hosts several events throughout the year, including “The Patch” in October. In October, you can celebrate the fall season here and pick pumpkins, explore the hay bale or corn maze, play corn hole and tetherball, try out the tricycle course and rubber ducky races, visit the animal barn and flower shop, and more. Plus, there’s food + beverages to enjoy on your trip. Learn more aboutKnutson Farms here, and follow Knutson Farms on Facebook and Instagram.



๐ŸŽƒ Spooner Farms in Puyallup

Spooner Farms is one of the most popular pumpkin patch destinations in the Pierce County area, and here you’ll find so much more than just a pumpkin patch! Spooner Farms has been around since 1882, and it’s very much a family-owned and operated venture—in fact, it’s been in the family for 6 generations! 

Spooner Farms’ Harvest Festival and Corn Maze features a huge pumpkin patch, an elaborate corn maze, delicious snacks, farm animals, a pumpkin slingshot, tractor tours, fall decorations and much more. For more information about visiting Spooner Farms,

๐ŸŽƒ Picha Farms in Puyallup

Picha Farms has been growing produce since 1904, and this Puyallup farm is a great option if you’re looking for a fun spot to enjoy harvest activities this fall! You’ll find a 5-acre corn maze, a hayride, a kiddie train, a slingshot, classic autumn snacks (like hot apple cider, kettle corn, homemade caramel apples, roasted corn, and more), fall decor to buy, and of course, a 9-acre pumpkin patch! For more information about what you expect on your visit, visit the Picha Farms social pages, Facebook and Instagram, for more details. 



๐ŸŽƒ Double RR Farms Pumpkin Patch in Puyallup

This third generation, family-operated farm is right in between Puyallup and Tacoma off of River Road. During October, you can visit Double RR Farms’ 5-acre corn maze, a huge selection of pumpkins, free tractor-pulled hay rides, a pumpkin slingshot, and more. You can learn more about visiting Double RR Farms Pumpkin Patch in Puyallup here. Follow them on Facebook for updates, and check out photos of the farm on Instagram.



We usually make our way to Spooner Farms, but this year we're excited to try Turnbull Farm in Lakebay. Wherever you end up, we hope you have a fantastic time! Enjoy your pumpkin patch fun, and have a wonderful October!
