In the farm's own words: "Family-oriented pumpkin patch featuring a haunted house, as well as a maze." The Haunted Pumpkin Patch is one of the farms we track with a haunted attraction, which typically means farm haunts run in the evening, usually friday and saturday from late september, and they are ticketed separately from daytime admission almost everywhere. intensity varies far more than at a commercial haunted house: so…
Based on its public listing, The Haunted Pumpkin Patch is typically open Monday 12-4PM, Tuesday 12-4PM, Wednesday 12-4PM, Thursday 12-4PM, Friday 12-4PM, Saturday 12-4PM, Sunday 12-4PM. Pumpkin patch hours shift often during the season — expect longer hours the two or three weekends around mid-October and shorter, sometimes weekend-only hours toward either end of the season — so treat this as a strong starting point rather than a guarantee.

Like most working farms, the exact open and close dates for The Haunted Pumpkin Patch 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.
