2017 Pumpkin Patches and U-Pick Farms

Fall City, Carnation, Issaquah, Redmond, North Bend

September 24, 2017

Between now and October 31st, families everywhere will seek out the perfect pumpkin, scoop its guts and carve it, light it, enjoy it, and then watch it decompose (my favorite part).  Since you don't want to miss out on that tradition, Macaroni Kid has compiled a list of local pumpkin-picking-places! (Say that three times fast!)

So charge up that camera, grab the rubber boots, and get ready for some great pumpkin pickin'!  Also, please note we do our best to keep information updated, but you may want to confirm with the businesses website before packing up the family!
