​

Do you have carts or wagons for pumpkins?

Yes! We have wagons you can borrow and please return to the pumpkin patch for our next visitors as soon as possible. You are welcome to bring your own wagon or cart as well to ensure you have something carry your load of pumpkins!

​

Do we have to cut the pumpkins?

No, we will cut the pumpkins off the vine so all you have to do is find the ones you want and fill your wagon. In fact, if you see a pumpkin still on the vine, let it be, it is still growing big and strong for your next visit!

 

Early in the season we may even ask that you do not enter the pumpkin patch in order to let our crop continue to grow. We will place pumpkins all around the patch and the farm for you to select! By late September and October, you will be able to walk the patch. Thanks for helping us let our pumpkins grow to their full potential.

​

Do you have tractor/wagon rides?

We do not. We are a small farm with each activity in close proximity. If you feel you may need help getting around, please reach out to us ahead of time so we can determine if we can make arrangements for you. Contact us at hippiehillbillyfarm2025@gmail.com

​

Can we pet your cows and sheep?

Maybe! With this being our first season, our mini cows and our sheep are a bit shy. As they get used to visitors, we will help them get comfortable coming up to the fence to say hello! When it is very hot outside, they will likely stick to the shade of the barn. For their health and safety, we will allow them to stay cool and comfortable on those days.

​

What else is there to do?

There is fun for the whole family and we are sensory friendly!

 

We have a short or long corn walk to our pumpkin patch. The "long" way is one tenth of a mile and takes about 5 minutes to walk. You are welcome to walk it as many times as you'd like! We have corn pits with lots of tractors, scoops, and toys to play with. We have giant tractor tires to play on. We have plenty of great scenery for your perfect fall photos!

​

Do you have food and drinks?

We will do our best to invite food and drink trucks out to the farm. When we do not have trucks available, we will have water and some small snacks available for purchase. We encourage you to bring a picnic with you and enjoy a day at the farm - no alcohol and please keep your picnic area clean when you leave.

​

Do you have seating?

We do not at this time, please feel free to bring lawn chairs and/or picnic blankets and hang out under our big, beautiful shade trees. We hope to be able to purchase/make picnic tables and more for you soon!

​​

What should I wear?

Walking boots or shoes that you don't mind getting a little dirty. Bring along your gardening gloves if you'd like to avoid prickly pumpkin stems. Dress fancy for some fun fall photos or come dressed as your best hippie or hillbilly. No matter what, dress in what's comfortable to you! Also wear your bug spray and sunscreen!

​

Are you open rain or shine?

As our grandma's would ask, "are you made of sugar? will you melt?" Yes, we will be open if it is raining, however if there is thunder and lightning please stay safely indoors. We add a "we're closed due to weather" banner to this website and add updates on social media should we need to close for your safety.
