Our favorite fall activity is to head out to Goebbert’s Pumpkin Patch
in Hampshire. This U-Pick, family-owned farm has everything including a playground, giant corn bin with trucks and toys, petting zoo, a giant dinosaur that chomps on pumpkins, wagon rides, a restaurant, a jumping pillow, a munchkin corn maze, a train ride perfect for all little ones (and their families) and doughnuts...ahhh the doughnuts. Get there early on the weekends as crowds get a little crazy after noon.
