Fall is almost upon us here in Tallahassee, and with that comes cooler weather, the changing color of leaves, and pumpkins! We all love to get dressed in a cute flannel and some boots to go hunting for the perfect pumpkin, so here is a list of the best patches and festivals this year in Tallahassee.

 

1. Christ Presbyterian Pumpkin Patch

Located on Bannerman road, this patch will have hundreds of pumpkins to choose from. The pumpkin patch opens on October 1st through Halloween and all proceeds are used for scholarships to allow their youth groups to attend conferences as well as church-sponsored mission trips.

5. Spring Hill Tree Farm

Located just 30 min north of Tallahassee, Spring Hill tree farm in Bainbridge Georgia is a must do on this list. The family-owned farm has a U-Pick pumpkin patch, a large corn maze, horseback riding and hayrides, as well as games, great food and BBQ. The weather in Georgia this time of year is perfect, and the beautiful farm will definitely get you in the fall spirit. I went last year with my family and it was an amazing day, definitely worth the trip! There is a Haunted maze and hayride on Friday night, Oct 27 and Saturday night Oct 28. Open every weekend in October.
