Our biggest weekend of the year
The last weekend of September
One weekend, every year, the whole farm runs flat out. Hayrack rides out to the patch all day, live music going, the bakery frying cider donuts as fast as it can, and the candy cannon at 1pm sharp on both days. It is all included in one ticket, thirty five minutes north of Kansas City.
Last weekend of September · Candy cannon at 1pm · All 16 activities included · 35 minutes from Kansas City
The weekend itself
This is the biggest weekend we run. Everything on the farm is open, everything is included, and nothing costs extra once you are through the gate.
The tractor runs out to the pumpkin patch and back all day long, both days. It is included, so ride it as many times as you like.
One o’clock sharp, Saturday and Sunday. Get there a few minutes early if you want your kids near the front.
Music plays through the weekend while the farm fills up. [CONFIRM: who is playing in 2026 and the set times.]
Cider donuts fried through the day from our own pressed cider, plus cider slushies, hot spiced cider, caramel apples and kettle corn.

One ticket, sixteen ways to wear them out
There is no separate Pumpkin Fest ticket. Regular fall weekend admission gets you the festival and the whole farm with it.
All 16 activities, the hayrack ride out to the patch, live music, the candy cannon, parking and a picking bag. Pumpkins and fruit are priced by weight after you pick.
Every ticket link on this page goes to /tickets, so the checkout URL only ever has to be updated in one place.
The patch
The hayrack drops you at the patch and you walk the rows and cut your own. Pick from the vine, not from a pile.
Pumpkins are priced by weight after you pick, the same way the fruit is. There is a full rundown of varieties, what the patch is like and when to come on the pumpkin patch page, so we will not repeat it here.
