Here are some links to a few pumpkin patches. Pumpkin Patches are great not only for pumpkins but other fall crops as well. If you have one near you, please post it in the feedback and we'll add it to the list. We went to one last year for my grandson's birthday and had a blast!
Here's the story and pictures about our trip last year:

No doubt there are many, many more. This was all we had time to find. If you would like to recommend one in your area or if you own a pumpkin patch, post it below.

In Broome Co., N.Y. and Tioga Co., N.Y. you will find two of the BEST. In Endicott, NY is Jackson's Farm. Pumpkin people, cider and donuts, all the fall good times.
In Owego, NY, it's Iron Kettle Farm. It was featured in this current edition of Country Magazine. Just wanted to add to the list.
