This page provides a detailed list of Columbus and surrounding counties'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!

We have loads of related resources here, too.

On our Pick-your-own website, we also have pages with our own simple instructions on canning, freezing and drying  many other fruits and vegetables, such as  how to make jam, apple butter, applesauce, spaghetti sauce, salsa, pickles, ketchup or freezing corn  (these links open new pages, just close them to return here).   Be sure to come back at Christmas if you are looking for a cut-your-own Christmas tree farm!   Look at the bottom of the page for links to resources on home canning, picking tips, recipes, etc..

After arriving at the field, get off the wagon and look (and look) until you find just the right pumpkin (or pumpkins!) to fit your needs. This is a great way to have fun, enjoy a wagon ride, and get a fresh pumpkin all at the same time. The 2005 cost is $5.00 per pumpkin, which includes the wagon ride to the pumpkin patch. Another way to find your special pumpkin is to look through the many pumpkins we harvest from the field and display next to the Dairy Store. There are always several thousand small pumpkins that sell for $1.50 in 2005. Animal Petting Area open from 10 AM to 10 pm April through October. Closes at 6 pm November through March.

    A visitor writes on October 27, 2009:  (positive) "We went to Circle S Farms last week and it was wonderful. They have a couple of mazes, some animals, and a great little barn full of hay. The barn also had slides coming down the hay, which my two year old daughter loved. Many pumpkin patches that I have gone to the pumpkins are just placed in a field, but these were still growing and attached, which I thought was great. I would definitely recommend visiting (and the group rate is cheaper if you are interested)"
    A visitor writes on October 15, 2009:  (negative)  "My family has been to the Circle S farms twice now - once in 2006 and then in 2008. We loved the 2006 trip and one of our favorite family pictures is from that trip. I decided last year to do it again but was so disappointed. The bees were a HUGE issue. I think it's because we hadn't had a cold front yet that year so the bees were EVERYWHERE. My husband even got stung when we went to get our stroller and there were bees covering the stroller. The assortment of pumpkins in the field were a bit sparse as well. AND I can say that I didn't feel like that bees were just where the food was. When we were waiting for the tractor to take us to the pumpkin field, I actually threw away my drink since I didn't want to draw anything more to me than was already there. To be honest, we kind of felt ripped off last year and it soured our impression of the place we enjoyed so much in 2006. "
    A visitor writes on October 04, 2009: (negative) "My fiance and I just got home from visiting Circle S Farm and we were very disappointed. After paying a $22 cover fee ($8 visitor fee and $3 pumpkin fee per person) we walked through the concession area to see what goodies they had in store. Well I guess we got there too late (it was 2pm mind you) because their goodies have already been picked over. Next we decided to go on the hayride so that we could pick our own pumpkins from the field. After arriving at the field we walked around for a few minutes and shortly realized that all of the good sized pumpkins were gone. The only pumpkins left to pick from were very small. We have been to other pumpkin patches in the past and we know what to and not to expect for pumpkin sizes. Well the sizes that were available for our choosing were very poor. To make matters worse we felt extremely rushed while in the field. We probably were only looking around for about 5 minutes when we realized everyone had already loaded back on to the wagons to go back to the farm. Well I guess the driver wasn't ok with letting us walk around by ourselves because we were about to be approached by the driver when we realized what was going on. Once back on the farm we realized why the pumpkin selections were so poor, all of the decent sized pumpkins were already picked and for sale at .40 cents a pound. Well since we were so disappointed with our tiny pumpkins (sub 10 pounds a piece) we decided to splurge on two larger sized pumpkins. The only good thing I can say about this farm is at least we were able to leave with 2 decent sized pumpkins but that was only after paying $70 (2 large pumpkins and 2 visitor + pumpkin fee). Trust me on this, save your money and go somewhere else!"
    A visitor writes on August 14, 2009: (positive) "This is a great farm. I take the preschoolers every year for pumpkins and they have a great time. The farm is clean, has great activities and the pumpkins are always big and orange. We went strawberry picking this summer and once again had a wonderful time. Great Farm!"
    A visitor writes on October 15, 2008: (negative) "Not happy at all with this farm, tried it last year for the first time was not happy, but gave them a second change this year and even more disapointed. Should be called a bee farm-bees were every where because of the trash sitting in the containers, not clean around the farm. Food was overly priced, people were not very friendly-"
    A visitor writes on October 23, 2008: (positive) "We just got back from Circle S Farm & had a great time! A barn with hay & slides, a maize, hay ride to pick the pumkin. We took 2 three year olds that had a blast. I noticed another person posted a negative comment. There were a few bees around the eating area (you get a ticket for a doughnut & apple juice with the cost of admission). This was mildly annoying but it certainly didn't ruin our trip. I would go back again & would recommend it to others. "
    A visitor writes on October 26, 2008: (positive) "about the bee comment.. there were a few bees next to the food area but it wasnt that bad. It is $8 per person to get in children under 2 are free. Make sure to go on the hay ride to get your pumpkin last because it drops you back off in the parking lot so you dont have to lug your pumpkin around but it is a walk to get back so it is easier to do all activites and end with hay ride to the pumpkin patch and be dropped off near your car. they also had a petting zoo which my kids 3&5 loved!! We will be going again next year or summer for the strawberries :)"

    A visitor writes on August 14, 2009: "I live near this farm so one day my husband and I stopped by to get some apple cider. After that night I will never set foot on that property again. Neither of us could leave the restroom. Do not take your children there!"
    A visitor writes on October 13, 2008: "I was extremely disappointed by this farm and the pick-your-own pumpkin patch. The property itself was not well taken care of. There was "stuff" everywhere. From broken down farm equipment, to broken refrigerators and old farm trucks. The hayride left much to be desired. The distance was about 400 yards, lasted 10 minutes and included old tractors and combines as its only scenery. The pumpkin patch was hardly that. It was about 20 pumpkins randomly placed in a field. The pumpkins were already cut off the vine and it didn’t look like this was where the pumpkins were even grown. The only animals to be seen on the entire farm were a few pigs and they had an old tractor right in the middle of their pen. We purchased our sad little pumpkins and thought we might check out the produce building before we left, even though we were extremely dissatisfied with the hayride and pumpkin patch experience. The produce building/farmers market was not any better. The barn where all this was set up was full of JUNK!!! Literally full of it. I think out of the entire size of the barn, only about 25% was being used to sell produce, ever though you could see the piles and piles of stuff everwhere. There were lots of pumpkins and gourds to choose from but all the other produce looked pretty terrible. I was really looking forward to a nice fall day, with pumpkins and farm animals, and this place was AWFUL. I would not recommend it to anyone. "
    A visitor writes on October 14, 2008: "this place was not at all the way they make it sound! it was a mess i would not go back there. the place looked as if some had used it for a dump. i have to agree with the last note made this place is not what it is said to be. "
