15 Green Bay Area Pumpkin Patches & Apple Orchards: 2020

October is almost here and it’s time to get out and enjoy some apple orchards and pumpkin patches! Here’s the 2020 list with 15 family-friendly places to visit that are an hour or less from the Green Bay area. And it’s not just a list of locations–the let’s go mommy list provides you with everything you need to know before going including address, hours, description and costs…all in one place to make planning easier. (But, if you want a quick list, we have that, too–just check out our pumpkin patch and apple orchard guide page here.) Most places are open through the end of October unless otherwise noted.

Since everything is different in 2020, it’s probably a good idea to visit the orchard/pumpkin patch website link directly (which you can find below) or call ahead with any specific questions. Some of the typical attractions will be gone or closed this year due to Covid. You should also assume face coverings will be required when indoors and on hay rides when those are offered. And it’s always a good idea to take or wear rain boots or “play shoes” that can get dirty/muddy in the corn mazes.

Also, if you’re looking for other fall/Halloween-themed events going on this October in the Green Bay area, you can find that list here: letsgomommy.com/october-family-fun-in-green-bay

I hope you and your family find time to check out at least one of these great locations! (And if you know of any that are not listed that should be added, please let me know.) Happy Fall!!

The Little Farmer’s mission is to provide you with the experience of a rural farm – a return to the land and your roots. When you visit you will sense the great pride they have in providing you with fresh produce, bakery, caramel apples, fall colors and products. Lifetime family memories start at one of the area’s oldest farms.

All pumpkins are sold by their size using “size rings”. There are 6 different sizes. You are encouraged to measure your pumpkin using the rings which are located around the farm buildings and near the fields. You can pick the pumpkins yourself or buy pre-picked.

They offer a corn maze for $3.25 per person. It is a little over 6 acres and takes about 20 minutes. If you have time, you can help figure out who stole the pie from the Bakers! It’s a fun little game to help your kids learn about animal tracks.

Visit the barnyard and find goats, Scottish Highland Cattle, sheep, peafowl and chickens. Kids can feed the goats with goat pellets for 25 cents per hand.

They also have an apple orchard and offer pick-your-own apples. U-pick bags must be pre-purchased from a register; you may not bring your own containers for picking or reuse bags from a previous visit.
