This farm has everything we love. It's our 5th consecutive year coming here and the kids just love it. They have some new stuff this year 2025. You do need to pay an entrance fee for each car. I suggest purchasing it online before you got to save $5. This year was $30 at the door and online $25 but once you go in everything is free except for food. There is a basketball activity, tether ball, coming back this year the corn pit, and a little farm stand that has your decorative pumpkins on it. So very cute. They have chickens you can feed there. Goats on the farm to see. Food trucks on-site you can purchase. In addition, plenty of outdoor seatings for families to eat their lunch. The farm has barrel rides for kids, and hayride for the everyone. There is a you-pick flower where you pay $15 to pick enough flowers for your case they give you. There is a new area for you to sit down and trim and arrange your flowers. Tons of pumpkins of all assortment to pick from. Super cute for porch displays. They also invite a group of local businesses and artists to sell things at the farm. Super fun here and we enjoy coming here each year in October. read more

Such a cute little place for some fall fun with the family. Pay for parking and everything is pretty much included unless you want to buy a pumpkin or purchase from any of the vendors. There are picnic tables and chairs, plenty of space for parking, walking, photo opportunities and more. This was such a great choice for. First time pumpkin patch visit for my daughter. She loved seeing the animals and the tractor ride! Prepare by paying online for parking and save $5. In person was $25, online is $20. Pumpkins are $1.50 a pound. It was warm the day we went and there is very little shade so make sure you take water, a hat, and sunscreen because it's Fresno folks. Haha! Oh and lots of uneven ground-dirt, hay, rocks so make sure you are not in sandal or flip flops-take solid shoes for you and the kiddos. read more

Terrible service! My niece came here for her school field trip! They didn't make the kids feel welcome! They made the whole process feel rush! Made the whole trip feel like it was an inconvenience for them. Terrible service. read more

After driving 45 minutes to go to the pumpkin patch with our 2 service animals, we were rudely turned away. The men who approached the car were not very polite or friendly and would not allow us to step out of our vehicle because we had service dogs with us.DO NOT VISIT THIS PUMPKIN PATCH. read more

If I could give zero stars I would. The owner is so rude and lacks the customer service skills you would expect from a business owner. I went w family on opening weekend to get some pumpkins for my home and work. We knew it might sprinkle that day and had umbrellas but it was a small chance for rain so we went. To my surprise it was $25 just to enter which is ridiculous but we drove out there so I paid it m. they have gorgeous pumpkins and I heard good things but the owner tarnished it all. I responded to their receipt (not in public) about the rain and my service dog who was in the car. I also wanted to buy more pumpkins but the rain just wouldn't allow it. I said it would be nice if maybe they gave us a pass for another day because we had to leave after 15 min. I would return to get more had they made that offer The owner responded so rudely. Saying the rain passed in 23 min, that my dog barked uncontrollably etc etc. all lies. The rain was off and on for 2-4 hours. I can handle some rain but it was a down pour and everyone packed up and left. Also my 8 lbs dog barked when the kid at the gate came to the window and she only barked once!! She's a service dog and is with me all of the time. Then the owner made some weird comment about us parking outside of the gate which we didn't! We drove inside and parked. She made a comment about checking her website before hand which I did and it said nothing about service dogs, weather or anything weird. I specifically looked and went to their "contact us" page prior - but whatever - her farm isn't the only farm of this kind and there are several that are equally great farms in the area. I was legit shocked by how she attacked me. I wasn't negative or rude in my initial "private" comment. I won't be returning and I'll make sure others are warned before going. Wish I was warned. Also I didn't text her I responded to a receipt I never gave her my cell or agreed to be texted or harassed like this. When I said I would just go to yelp she suddenly got nice and stopped texting me. I don't post on yelp because I hate the purpose of it - however I feel I need to post this (and I noticed there was another post similar to mine) in hopes that the owner will treat all of her clients with respect and kindness. read more

All the activities are more geared for little ones, but was somewhat blind sided by how much it was going to cost! I didn't see any mention on their website. Pulled up to the entrance and told it was $25 for parking and 2 rides. I drove quite a ways out so I did end up paying it. Not sure it was worth the money, felt that 15-20 would be. The only downside was the hay ride, it was super rickety and felt like I was gunna fall off. All the other activities were very cute and perfect for photos read more

My family went today & we absolutely LOVED IT! You have to pay $25 per car but it's 100000% worth it. That $25 includes the tractor ride for kids & also a bigger truck for adults to take a trip around the pumpkin patch! It was AMAZING. You can also feed the chickens. There's horses, cows, goats, & chickens. They also have a corn pool that the kiddos can get into. It's super cute & unique! read more

This is such a great place to take the kids. We were the first there since we were 25 minutes early. If you buy the tickets online, it is only $15 per carload. There is a hayride, tractor ride for the kids, you can feed the chickens, pet the goats, check out all of the little goodies. We will be returning next year. read more

This place is super far but it was really cute. However, $25 for parking is a little much. We had a larger group and ended up taking 4 cars for different reasons so $100 for parking is crazy. Needless to say, we didn't pay the parking fee, we just pulled over and got in each others car. Credit card machine wasn't working either so a bit of a hassle read more

Great atmosphere and fun!!! The pumpkins didn't last long from here only a couple days but overall fun experience

I hate writing negative reviews, but I'm so appalled by how we were treated this weekend that it warrants one. I want to clarify that I still think the farm is fantastic and the animals are very happy and healthy. Unfortunately, I can't leave a review for one person's behavior, so I need to leave it here. The owner is so incredibly rude that I still can't believe how we were treated. I've relayed the story to friends who are so disgusted and equally as confused as I am. My mom and I went to this farm last year and I had so much fun. I'm a massive animal lover, especially when it comes to farm animals, and I love pumpkins. This place is the perfect combo. We had such a great experience last year and I've been so excited to go again. We went on opening day (October 8th) so I could get a jump on getting a bunch of decorative pumpkins. We arrived at 10am, when the farm opens, and I went right to the pumpkins. I walked around and noticed there wasn't a price list anywhere, but I knew there'd been one last year. My mom couldn't find one either and no one was around to ask. We decided to go walk through the pumpkin patch itself because it's cute. We went back to the decorative pumpkin area about 10-15 minutes later hoping the price list would be out. It wasn't. By then, we noticed a woman and two young girls at a table. The table itself didn't have any signs, so we weren't sure who they were, and last year the same area had multiple outdoor vendors. My mom asked, very politely, "Excuse me, do you work here?" And the woman looked up at us with this intense coldness and gave us an incredibly short response confirming she worked there. It was an immediate red flag. My mom then asked, again politely, if there was a price list anywhere for the pumpkins since we were interested in buying some. This woman couldn't have been more bothered if she tried. Her rude, belittling, and condescending response of, "Today is opening day and there are still things to do so the price list isn't out yet" was so jarring that it left me stunned. Like we should be ashamed we'd even ask how much the pumpkins cost and we should be prepared to pay any price. She asked what size pumpkin we wanted. My mom was a little thrown off, but explained that I was interested in the pumpkins in general. The woman looked at me and I added that I wasn't sure what pumpkins I wanted yet, as I needed to know the prices to help me decide which of the pumpkins I wanted most. Then the woman rudely asked what my budget was. I told her I didn't have one, as I hadn't gone in with a set price in mind. She continued talking to us like we were children and told us some version of, "The pumpkins range in price from $1-$25 with the jumbo ones being xyz." At this point, even the girls next to her looked uncomfortable. There are all sizes and types of decorative pumpkins. There is literally no way to know what they cost with the explanation of $1-$25. Then she has the audacity to briskly add that we can go over to the pumpkins, lift them up one at a time, and shout to her for a pricing and she'll shout back. Are you kidding me? I have osteoarthritis in my fingers and my mom has osteoporosis. I only lift up the pumpkins I want and I put them directly into the cart. I certainly don't heft them into the air and shout from 100-200 feet away for a price, repeatedly. We walked away in shock and I told my mom I wouldn't be giving them more of my money. I spent some time with the animals and then we left and went down the road to another pumpkin patch I like where they were not only open early, but had prices listed in two ways, and were incredibly friendly. I later found out the woman we spoke with is the OWNER because I went to the website to see if there were any photos with staff. It is YOUR job to put out price lists. Prices are one of the most important things to provide. If a list isn't out by opening day (a day YOU picked and knew of at least a month in advance) then it's your job to explain it politely. A simple, "I'm so sorry, but we're late getting out the prices, and they should be out in about 30 minutes if you don't mind waiting" would have absolutely sufficed. I'd have been more than happy to hang out with the animals while we waited. Instead, you decided, for whatever reason, to treat friendly supporters of your business like absolute trash. I will never return here and I will advise my friends to go elsewhere. While I realize losing out on my money won't even remotely impact this business, I won't give another penny to benefit someone who lacks the capacity to be respectful. It's SO easy to be kind. If you don't like interacting with people, give yourself a task that doesn't require you to talk to anyone. Do better, be better, and eat some humble pie. read more

We had a great time today. They had tractor rides for the family and a smaller tractor barrel ride for the kiddos. They give access to the barn to see the animals and you can choose to pick your own straight from the vine or choose from a variety of neat pumpkins. They also have a restaurant , snacks, Yosemite Lemonade, and more. read more
