It’s mid-October and we already have 2 pumpkins adorning our porch! One of our favorite Fall activities involves going to our local pumpkin patch to pick out a pumpkin.We typically spend an afternoon making our way through the hay maze, riding the train, racing the tractors and getting our scare on at the not-too-spooky Haunted House.
The Pumpkin Patch at Irvine Park Railroad is one of the largest in the county featuring thousands of pumpkins in a variety of shapes and sizes. The entire area is transformed for the season with enough activities to keep kids engaged all day. We actually visited early in the season and then headed back because we couldn’t get enough!
Traditionally, The Pumpkin Patch has offered a combination of free and ticketed activities. Here is what you can expect this year at the Irvine Park Railroad Pumpkin Patch:
Free Activities
Haunted House
Giant Hay Maze
Festive Picture Stands

We love riding the train at Irvine Park Railroad. We have not yet visited in the fall, but want to participate in the fun Halloween activities!
Favorite has always been the train ride, enjoying the scenic views and screaming thru the tunnel 🙂
All the activities look like so much fun!
Love the train and the zoo
We laughed so hard on one of those family bikes! Would love to experience that again!
My family loves to rent the surrey bikes and the paddle boats. I just enjoy seeing all the smiling faces of my kiddos when we go.
The horse rides and train and the peacocks!
