Pumpkin Patches, Farms and Harvest Festivals in Virginia

While apples are the mainstay at this Orchard, come October, they also have a pumpkin patch and hayrides. Did we mention they also make wine here? Families rave about their baked apple goodies. Every weekend in October they have their Apple Harvest Celebration with music, food, hayrides, wine tastings, pumpkins, apple butter, apple cider, apple donuts, apple pie, and all things apple!

This off the beaten track farm is a ton of fun. From late September through early November, the park hosts their annual Giant Corn Maize and Fall Festival (24-acres!), as well as pig races, pony rides, a cow train, giant jumping pillows (like a moonbounce with no top), pumpkin blasters (shoot pumpkins at targets), hayrides, pick your own pumpkin patch, and more.
