Children 12 years and under obtain free admission with a paying adult. 

Admission price includes a $2 pumpkin buck toward the pumpkin or gourd of your choice that exceeds $2. This year we will have beautiful pumpkins of all sizes, delicious baked goods, weekend performances including Big Joey Magic Showy, gourmet hot dogs, shaved ice, face painting, balloon creations and digital photography for sale. The Pumpkin Patch is our major fundraising event of the year and our main source of funding for community outreaches and missions. We would like to thank you in advance for your support and patronage. 

As part of our Pumpkin Patch offerings, Flanigan’s Dinner and Show of Illusion will be held on Saturday, October 28th. Both adults and children love this event each year! Admission is $12.
