We cut orange, blue, and green pumpkins from the vine. They also have a corn maze for an extra fee, and a food truck on premises if you get hungry.

Definitely worth a stop if you happen to be in the area--especially for us city folk who've never been to an actual patch where pumpkins are grown! Just wear appropriate footwear; flat boots work great.

She was referred by a mutual friend , we got the large zoo which included goat/sheep/and what we thought was mini pig. The pig was Gemma who is advertised as the "kissing pig" , she was totally fine (definitely not mini) but my issue was with the girl assisting . She was the "gatekeeper" while Natacha did pony rides. This may needed to have changed as the girl allowing kids in to the "petting zoo" was an issue. Not friendly, very abrupt with the kids, I understand being a rule follower but she wasn't professional with asking the guests to abide by them. I went in with my daughter to pet the animals and literally as we approached Gemma she blurted out "don't touch her face, talk to her before touching her, don't scare her " , I am pretty respectful of animals and educate my kids but this was ridiculous .. my 4 year old literally stopped walking towards the pig and said "mom I don't want to hurt the pig" . My daughter wasn't even doing anything wrong and to jump at her was excessive. Guidance and education go a long way but to be snappy and scare kids to not pet animals at a petting zoo and for the price I paid! Honestly ruined the experience for me as she did. It get any friendlier or professional. The other parents didn't complain but also noticed the "unfriendly" vibe she gave .Thank goodness we paid extra for pony rides as this was the only real highlight of the party. Natacha was great making sure we got a family photo and let my son ( the bday boy) ride for long times when no other kid was in line. I do wish the petting area was bigger . With the assistant 4 animals and an adult with each kid ( 91 adult per kid ) in the pen it was very tight fitting. No two adults and kids could be in there at once . Overall cute idea. Glad I had a bounce house and numerous other activities for the kids as this wouldn't have been enough. Again I hate to leave less than perfect reviews but looking back at the prep and pay for this was my push to leave an honest review .

The property is a treat to drive through the old oaks and Autumn light. As a farmers daughter, I love seeing the rows of farm equipment. The Nash Ranch (NR) is Shasta County's "original" Pumpkin Patch (PP) since 1991. NR is a real working farm that actually grows its own pumpkins, as well as a host of other things (i.e., alfalfa, oats, barley, and bird seed millet). Family farms are hard to hang onto...the costs roll in all year without anything coming in ie water, labor, seed, taxes. And then there is a summer with 119 degree summer days with weeks of triple digits. Pumpkin production is lowered. Despite hardships, Nash Family makes the Ranch work, while still sharing generously with the community.

What a great experience! I went on the Fairy Trail with my son and his wife and their almost…read more6-year-old daughter. She loved every minute. Wandering down the trails to find all the little vignettes was fun and then we enjoyed meeting all the animals and feeding them treats. Hard to pick any favorites amongst the animals but the little goats were a big hit since they were so easy to interact with. The staff were friendly, knowledgeable and helpful, and we appreciated the popcorn, cider and water snacks. I'm not sure if we actually found all the items on the "treasure hunt" but they kindly allowed my granddaughter to pick a "prize" anyway and she loved the purple magic wand she chose. One difficulty is that there is no restroom, not even a portapotty. Given the location that is not good as it is quite a distance to get to any place with a public restroom. Another is that there is no way to contact the venue by phone if you have questions. I almost didn't go because I was a bit late and the confirmation I received said that we had to be there at our specific time with no ability to change it. Fortunately my son was able to email them and ask if I could catch up to them on the trail if I arrived a bit late and they responded quickly enough that I didn't have to turn around and go back home (my drive there was two hours).
