It’s PUMPKIN PATCH time!
Picking out pumpkins together is such a fun fall tradition and we are lucky to have many wonderful pumpkin patches in the greater Sacramento area to choose from. They each have a variety of attractions that make for a super fun outing. Besides picking out that perfect pumpkin, your kids can be entertained with hayrides, corn mazes, petting zoos, and more! Don’t forget to bring your camera and take advantage of the great photo opportunities!
Most of these Sacramento area pumpkin patches are just open for the month of October, so be sure to plan your visits right away. However, you’ll see below that a few patches opened early and you can visit this weekend!

My love for exploring and creating experiences with my three kids led to the founding of SacramentoSidetracks.com in 2009. I realized that Sacramento has so much to offer and I was excited to share my findings with other parents. Besides simply having fun, these are the other positive side effects of taking my kids on outings that I’ve discovered: we have quality time together away from the distractions at home, we cultivate our curiosity, learn new things, conversations are triggered by what we see and do, we connect and bond as a family, and we create new memories. Ready to get sidetracked, too? Let me be your guide!
