7 Delaware Valley Farms With Pumpkin Picking This Fall
It’s that time again. We made a list to make your life easier of where in the Delaware Valley you can go pumpkin picking with your family.
Pumpkin picking is a fall rite of passage. The bright orange gourds make for some lovely decorations right outside your door on a crisp autumn day. They look so pretty next to the warm-colored fallen leaves of the season.
Yes, a grocery store pumpkin does just fine in a bind, but pumpkin-picking is so much more fun. It’s an activity for the whole family. Walking around a farm, sipping a latte, searching for the perfect, most unblemished pumpkin is one of the best parts of fall.
It’s important to take advantage of the season’s most beautiful harvest at the place where it was all grown! Local farms go all out to make sure autumn lovers have the most fun possible while there. Throw on your coziest sweater, and some boots, grab a pumpkin spice latte, and take the family to a fantastic farm.
