Visit our working farm just one mile east of Donnellson, Iowa, where we feature over 175 varieties of pumpkins, squash, gourds, and ornamentals at our roadside open air market.
To plan your next daytrip to the beautiful Iowa countryside, browse our website to see all the family activities we have happening at our Patch (corn and sorghum maze, pick your own pumpkin patch, Harvestville play area for kids, corn pool, rubber ducky races, obstacle courses, trike tracks, horse drawn wagon rides, gift shop).

We'd love to see you and your family, host your next educational field trip, group event and/or corporate event. We also welcome bus tours, family reunions, birthday parties, and church events. So contact the Patch when planning your next event!

Sounds wonderful! Are there any places to pick up food nearby so as to make a picnic with the kids? Also, any family-friendly places to stay?

Thanks for posting!

From the owner:

If you come on a Saturday, we have a local bbq restaurant about 2 miles away in town called the Wooden Pig. (www.thewoodenpig.com) Last year (2007) they brought and sold food at the pumpkin patch and we are talking with them about continuing to sell food next year as well. If bbq is not your style, there are many option in Ft. Madison which is about a 10 minute drive. A couple of suggestions for family-friendly places to stay: In Ft. Madison there is the Comfort Inn which is about 7 miles from the pumpkin patch and has a very nice pool. If you don't mind driving a bit more, I would recommend the Best Western Pzaz in Burlington IA. This place has a little bit of everything for everyone. They have a huge indoor water park (slides for the bigger ones, and a whole area that is only 1-2 feet for the younger ones) There is a huge arcade, bowling, go karts, a casino, and a couple of great restaurants. I have never personally stayed there but have heard good things. You can check al!
