Gordos Fun Farm
Gordos Fun Farm in Spanish Fork takes the top spot, rated 4.8 out of 5 from 158 reviews. Visitors come here for corn maze and petting zoo.

Corn mazePetting zooFarm storeKids play areaGordos Fun Farm is ranked #1 on this list, located at 5746 S 3200 W St, Spanish Fork, UT, 84660. It carries a 4.8-out-of-5 rating on Google from 158 reviews, which puts it among the more established pumpkin patches we track near Spanish Fork. Beyond the pumpkin field itself, it's tagged for corn maze, petting zoo, farm store and kids play area, so there's usually more to a visit than just picking a pumpkin and heading home.
Google hasn't surfaced a set of recurring review themes for Gordos Fun Farm yet, so there isn't a themed summary of what visitors say to pass along here — the star rating and review count above remain the clearest public signal until more detail comes in. In the farm's own words: "Family-friendly farm featuring a petting zoo, a corn maze, and other attractions, plus fresh produce." Gordos Fun Farm is one of the farms we track with a corn maze, which typically means a corn maze is cut into a standing field in late summer and stays open until the stalks are harvested, which is why most mazes open a week or two after the pumpkin patch itself and close hard at the end of the season. si…
Hours aren't listed for Gordos Fun Farm in our data. Most pumpkin patches run daily or weekends-only from mid-September through the first days of November, but the surest way to know is to call ahead or check the farm's website before you drive out. Admission pricing isn't listed for Gordos Fun Farm either — pumpkin patches generally charge one of three ways (free entry with pumpkins priced individually or by weight, a flat gate admission bundling attractions, or a per-attraction wristband system), so it's worth asking which applies here before you go. Payment methods aren't listed, and a meaningful share of family-run patches are cash-only for field admission and wagon rides even when the farm store takes cards — bringing some cash as backup avoids an awkward trip back to the car at the gate.
Like most working farms, the exact open and close dates for Gordos Fun Farm can shift year to year with weather and how the pumpkin crop comes in, even though the general window is fairly predictable. If you're planning a special trip, a weekday morning is consistently the quietest time to go, with shorter waits for wagon rides and easier parking than a weekend afternoon. Wear shoes you don't mind getting muddy — pumpkin fields are working farmland rather than paved lots, and they get soft fast after rain — and call ahead if it's rained heavily in the last day or two, since field access and hayrides are usually the first things a farm closes when the ground is saturated. Layers help too: fall mornings can start cold and warm up quickly once the sun is over an open field.
Gordos Fun Farm sits, near Spanish Fork, UT, with parking typically in a grass field rather than a paved lot — allow a few extra minutes on busy weekends for staff or volunteers to direct traffic, and if you're navigating by GPS rather than the link on this page, search the farm name directly rather than just the street address, since rural addresses sometimes route to the wrong gate.

Frequently asked questions
What is the best pumpkin patch with a petting zoo in Utah?
Based on rating and review volume, Gordos Fun Farm ranks first among the pumpkin patches with a petting zoo we track in Utah, with a 4.8-out-of-5 rating. See the full breakdown above, or its full listing for hours and directions.
What animals are usually at a pumpkin patch petting zoo?
It varies by farm, but goats, sheep, alpacas, rabbits and barn cats are the most common. Larger farms sometimes add pigs, ponies or a small aviary. Feed cups are usually available for a dollar or two even when general admission is free.
Is the petting zoo included in admission?
At most farms, yes — the animal barn is bundled into general admission rather than ticketed separately. It's still worth confirming when you call, since a minority of larger destination farms do charge extra for it.
Are petting zoos safe for toddlers?
Generally yes, with normal precautions. Well-run farms provide hand-washing stations near the animal area and it's worth using them properly — animal contact areas are a recognized source of E. coli and salmonella exposure in young children. Strollers are frequently not permitted inside the enclosure itself, so plan for carrying.
Are these pumpkin patches good for young kids?
Yes — a petting zoo is one of the two features (alongside a dedicated kids' play area) that most reliably holds a toddler's or preschooler's attention. Check the listings above for hours, and call ahead if you're planning specifically around animal-barn access.
