Gig Harbor-Area Pumpkin Patches: Where To Go This Fall

GIG HARBOR, WA — Time is running out to get outdoors and safely enjoy classic fall activities like going to Gig Harbor-area pumpkin patches.

A visit to the pumpkin patch in 2020 is different from years prior, owing to the pandemic but you can still enjoy the outdoors at several area pumpkin patches. Like local businesses and venues across the country, pumpkin patches have had to adjust their hours, activities and methods of operation.

So if you’re planning a visit, remember to take the required precautions, check local health guidelines, hours and rules for nearby pumpkin patches. And don’t forget to check if you need to make a reservation.

As for when to check out a local pumpkin patch: sooner is probably better than later as the first freeze is on the way this weekend, and it's just going to get colder from there.
