This page provides a detailed list of Utah's pumpkin patches, corn mazes, hay rides and other Halloween farm stuff!!   Just scroll down this page! Some are farms, where you take a hay ride out into the field, others are elaborate farm stands with mountains of pumpkins and other activities and some are simple roadside stands.  All should have loads of pumpkins to choose from.  To really make it fun for  your kids, look for those that have the extra activities, like a corn maze, spook house, or hayride.  There is usually a small fee for the mazes (of course, the  more elaborate mazes tend to charge more. Hayrides are often free. ALWAYS call before you go to confirm all information, they don't always report changes to me!

Each child is given a farm activity book. We then load up the hay wagons and head to Mountainland Apples packing plant to watch what happens to the apples in order to have them ready to ship to the grocery stores where consumers may purchase them. Each child is given an apple when leaving Mountainland. The hay wagons then take us to the Pumpkin Patch where each teacher may pick a free pumpkin for decorating their classroom. Children may also pick pumpkins if purchased. We return to the Red Barn for a homemade apple cider doughnut. The tour lasts between and hour and a half to two hours. All schools must call to make an appointment! In order to accommodate as many schools as possible, please arrive when scheduled.  $3.00 per child, $1.00 per parent or helpers, one teacher per class free (Includes doughnut, apple, farm activity book, educational presentation, Mountainland tour and one large pumpkin for each classroom) Extra pumpkins may be purchased pumpkin prices range from $.50 to $8.00.  *If you need to change or modify your appointment please call 24 hours before your scheduled appointment.*
  Preschools Tours (Kindergarten and down)
  Preschool are loads of fun. Once everybody has arrived at the Red Barn we load up the wagons and off to the pumpkin patch where you may run around as long as you want. Each child is given a farm activity book to remember the trip to the farm. Each person is given a doughnut or an apple which ever the instructor or person in charge has requested when scheduling.
