There’s something about a pumpkin patch that makes it officially feel like fall. The pumpkins, hayrides, apple cider and that first family photo surrounded by rows of orange pumpkins—it’s one of those simple fall days I look forward to every year.

I put together this Pumpkin Patch Day Checklist with everything you need to remember before you go, plus plenty of fun little things to do while you’re there. Pick the perfect pumpkin, wander through a corn maze, grab a fall treat, take way too many pictures and don’t forget to take the scenic way home.

Then keep the cozy going once you get home with a warm dinner, roasted pumpkin seeds and a favorite fall movie. 🍂

Save the checklist and make a whole fall day of it! 🤎
