Know Before You Go
- Call ahead to check on conditions if you’re heading to a patch where you pick your pumpkins off the vine.
- Check to see if reservations are necessary!
- Dress appropriately for the outdoors and for potentially changing weather conditions. Terrain at the pumpkin patch is usually grassy and bumpy with hills to climb/come down.
- If you want to bring your dog, check ahead of time. Some pumpkin patches do not allow pets.
- Don’t forget to bring your camera!
- Definitely bring snacks… some of the pumpkin patches are a bit of a drive from the Sound Shore area.
