Wade into the patch and find your pumpkin. Before your purchase, if you can guess the weight within two ounces before it’s put on the scale, you take the pumpkin home for free! Thousands of free pumpkins are given away each year to savvy guessers who have an eye for size!

The fun isn’t just limited to pumpkin guessing games. Kids will get a kick out of playing in the Cereal Bowl, a giant play area filled with corn kernels. It’s so much better than a sandbox.
