Cute place! They have a good selection of pumpkins and gourds. It is smaller than I expected but my…read morekid enjoyed it! This place was so packed and we went on a late Saturday evening, thinking all the families would be gone. Haha we were wrong. It's cool that a lot of the kids' activities are free, just be patient enough to wait in lines. There doesn't seem to be any order in terms of where to go to pay for pumpkins. There weren't any signs for prices or where to go to pay. The pumpkins were all spread out. A lot of pumpkins didn't have stems, probably due to people lifting pumpkins up by them. But overall, nice and free activity for the kids.

This was a super fun little place! The prices were great and the staff was extremely friendly…read more There's even a deaf & autistic man there named Wolly who I spoke a bit too. I'm not great at sign language but I know a bit so we spoke some. He seemed happy to find someone who knew sign language, even if I only know a little bit. He runs a small stand with some beautifully decorated/painted pumpkins! The pick your own pumpkin patch in the back was pretty much destroyed or the pumpkins were rotten. So that was a little disappointing but there was a very nice, good, selection of pre-picked pumpkins up front that you could choose from. So that's what we did. The adult corn maze was in rough shape as well but it was fun and easy to get through. As someone whose never been through a corn maze this was fun. Lol These two issues could just very well be since it's the end of the season though. So they absolutely wouldn't stop us from coming back. There was a hayride, a large slide for kids, and a hay maze for kids as well! They also had a wide variety of Gordes, miniature pumpkins of all different sizes, etc. I had wished they had more of the super tiny orange pumpkins, but again, end of season, they may have just been out. Over all we spent only $51. We got two large pumpkins, apple butter, 2 or 3 medium pumpkins/gordes, and several small pumpkins. So compared to other pumpkin patches my husband and I have been to, this was definitely very cheap and fun! The decorations are nice, it's simple, and well worth the money! They also sell a large variety of pumpkin carving kits too! So undoubtedly if we're ever in the area again around this time of year, we would come back.

Autumn is my favorite time of year; the temperature drops; the leaves change; and most of all--it's…read morepumpkin time! I love everything about pumpkin, so when I read about College Run Farm (CRF) serving homemade pumpkin ice cream, I was sold. My boys and I decided to take advantage of a gorgeous fall day and drove to CRF in Surry. If you've been to Chippokes State Park, you know how rural that road is and narrow. CRF is right up the road past Chippokes' entrance. We figured we might be the only customers there; we were shocked to see a full parking lot and many people. CRF has pumpkins available already picked, but what's the fun of that? We went to the pumpkin patch with our sheet in hand -I posted a picture- and cutters in order to cut the pumpkin off the vine. My boys decided they wanted Aladdins, and they were in Section 1, easy to find. My youngest picked a small pumpkin ($6) and my two older boys wanted bigger ones (regular $7). CRF does not weigh pumpkins and you use the honor system. You put down which pumpkins and how much on the sheet; put your pumpkins in your vehicle; and then you take the sheet to inside to pay. While inside, you can also purchase admission for the corn maze ($3 per person--free for 5 and under), which we didn't do, and homemade pumpkin ice cream, which we DID do--FTW! I thought their ice cream was a pretty good value: big waffle cones with two scoops for $3.50--especially being homemade. They also serve homemade strawberry ice cream in the spring during their strawberry season. We enjoyed CRF; it had a relaxed feeling, and we loved being able to pick our own pumpkins off the vine. They don't have lots of fall festival stuff such as a bouncy house or hayride, but that was fine with me. Surry is a bit of a drive from Suffolk, but combining a visit with Chippokes State Park, it could be an awesome day.

They have buckets for you to grab, or you can bring your own. You get charged per pound that you pick and pay when you're done! They had so many strawberries ready to pick, I had so much fun doing this with my friends kids! I was already planning on making a homemade strawberry shortcake when I got home. They have a cute little coffee truck which I obviously had to stop by. If you have a strawberry latte during strawberry season - you can count on me to grab one! It was so good, and not too sweet or tart from the strawberry! I also had to grab their strawberry donuts from the farm stand. Which, needless to say ... they did not make it home with me. We scarfed those down! Incredible. I loved the "petting zoo" area. You can feed the goats, sit in the rabbit pen and give them some pets, and play with the piglets! Such a cute add on to this experience; and the petting zoo was no charge! They also have a ton of toys and bounce houses for the kiddos. If you're looking for a fun strawberry picking experience, give them a try!
