Take a Ride to the Pumpkin Patch

Sunday September 27, 2009

Pumpkins at Simmons Farm in McMurray, Pennsylvania. Photo: Kimberly Powell.Pumpkins are king in Pennsylvania this time of year, and area farms and farm markets are ready for the demand. Hayrides to the pumpkin patch where you can pick your own pumpkins are available at a large number of farms around the greater Pittsburgh area. Most pumpkin patches in Western Pennsylvania turn the event into a pumpkin festival on the weekends, with corn mazes, fall food, games, petting zoos and, of course, plenty of pumpkins and other fall decorations for sale.
