It’s Fall, Y’all!

Every year I look forward to the season of fall. I love the cooler weather, the leaves changing colors, and oh yeah, PUMPKIN EVERYTHING! It also means it’s time for our annual trip to a pumpkin patch! As we all know, this year may look a little different at some locations, so I thought I’d do a little research and find some information on a few pumpkin patches that will be open this year. Note: Many locations are requiring a reservation this year, so be sure to check their websites frequently.

Pumpkin Patches in the DFW Area

Flower Mound Pumpkin Patch

We brought our daughter here a few years ago and were able to get some super cute pictures. We didn’t stay very long because she was so young, but there was plenty of room for exploring and pumpkin picking! They do charge for parking and are requiring a reservation this year, so make sure to check their website frequently for openings.

I absolutely love coming here in the fall! They always have a fun theme to look forward to each year and have many beautiful areas for a family picnic and photo ops. They are also requiring reservations this year, which is nice because it usually gets insanely crowded.
