Worth the Drive: Pumpkin Patches on Long Island
There's nothing more fun than a day of pumpkin picking with the family! Most farms are ready late September through November. It is always best to call ahead so you don't get there and find the fields bare. Also note, many farms run MORE activities on the weekends than during the week days, so check each website to see what is available before you go.
Don't miss any Fall Fun. Check out the Halloween Happenings Guide for a howling good time with your little pumpkins🎃
