12 Pumpkin Patches In Canada That Are So Worth The Drive
October means the start of pumpkin season. While pumpkin spice lattes have been on sale for a few weeks now, for many, October is when pumpkin time really begins. Between Thanksgiving and Halloween, you'll be decorating with pumpkins and eating tasty pumpkin dishes, like pumpkin pie. Now's the perfect time to visit a pumpkin patch with your friends. To help you plan your next fall adventure, we've made a list of some of the best pumpkin patches in Canada.
Going to a pumpkin patch is such a fun experience. Some farms are free to visit, and you only pay for the pumpkins you pick, making it very budget-friendly. Meanwhile, other farms offer a wide range of attractions like corn mazes and petting zoos.
Visiting a pumpkin patch is an essential experience to add to your fall bucket list. If you don't know anything about pumpkins, make sure to keep in mind the difference between the giant pumpkins you use to make jack-o-lanterns and the small variety used for pies. When in doubt, you can always ask someone at the farm to help you pick the right type.
