Get ready for a spooky night at the farm! Grab your family, your friends, and your best pumpkin-carving ideas and join us for our Halloween Pumpkin Carving Contest.
We’re staying open after hours for a fun evening of pumpkin carving, spooky music, and good old-fashioned Halloween fun.
Pick Your Pumpkin and Get Creative
When you arrive, you’ll get to choose whatever size pumpkin you want, and we’ll provide the pumpkin and carving kit. Then it’s time to get creative!
Whether you’re making something spooky, silly, cute, creepy, or completely ridiculous, we want to see what you come up with.
This is a family-friendly event and all ages are welcome.

Your pumpkins won't be judged that night. Instead, we'll display all of the finished pumpkins at the farm for Halloween. On Saturday, October 31st, our customers will get to cast their votes for their favorite pumpkin. Bring your family and friends back to the farm on Halloween and help choose the winner! The pumpkin with the most votes wins!
