Looking for a local pumpkin patch, corn maze, hayride, gourds and other Halloween activities in Dallas / Fort Worth Area of Texas? Then I hope this resource will help you find all of the best pumpkin patches in Rowlett.
Some are farms, where you take a hay ride out into the field, others are elaborate farm stands with mountains of pumpkins and other activities and some are simple roadside stands. Most have loads of pumpkins to choose from. To really make it fun for your kids, look for those that have the extra activities, like a corn maze, spook house, or hayride. There is usually a small fee for the mazes (of course, the more elaborate mazes tend to charge more. Hayrides are often free. ALWAYS call before you go to confirm the info, they don’t always report changes to me!
Every year, families and friends make it a tradition to visit the pumpkin patch. Visiting a pumpkin patch isn’t just about finding the best pumpkin, but the experience and memories that you make while there. Every pumpkin patch is unique and offers different activities than the next one.
