Pumpkin Pick at OMF
The Pumpkin Pick Fall Festival
Join us on the first weekend in October!
Get out of the city and enjoy a beautiful drive to the Gorge. We are located just 3 miles from the Vista House. Come meet our 30+ Farm Program animals at our beautiful site in Corbett. It is always the first full weekend in October. Join Old McDonald’s Farm, Inc. (a non-profit, children’s program) for a lovely and peaceful outing. Enjoy a more private experience out in the open air and where you will easily be able to socially distance. We have covered spaces and warming fires going so join us rain or shine.
$10 per person and pre-payment is required. Kids 1 & under are free:
For that one price, receive: a family hayride, enjoy the game area including mounting our new, stationary (fake) horse, meet the program animals including the real horses, cow, goats, sheep, pig, farm dogs, etc., enjoy the Selfie Station to take your own pictures, roast marshmallows in our safe and nifty fire pit and sip hot chocolate or cider. All of this is included in that one entrance price.
Please bring cash to purchase that perfect pumpkin and to shop in our Farm Store. Cash is easier and faster than using credit cards. It is a rural area and the on-line connection is dicey.
Enjoy this above while helping our non-profit, children’s program so that we can continue to serve kids and feed our Farm Program animals this winter.
Prepayment is required from our web site, the link is below, and we will schedule groups starting at 10:00 a.m. We will allow families to join us every 10 minutes so 10:00, 10:10, 10:20 10:30, 10:40, 10:50, 11:00 and so on.
REGISTRATION OPENS IN LATE SUMMER
We are open for a scheduled appointment only! Please do not just show up; we will not take “Walk Ins” this year.
Please bring cash to purchase extra pumpkins or gourds and to shop in our Farm Store. In a rural area, using a credit card on site is clunky and not at all reliable.
We are on a “first come, first served” basis so as soon as you want to register and pay for the Pumpkin Pick Fall Festival, click on this link below and see what time spots are still available. Pre-payment is required. Please make every effort to be on time.
Please find directions at www.OldMcDonaldsFarm.org, on the top, right of our Home Page. Please do not use Google Map; it is wonky half the time.
Sorry, no refunds please. If you cannot join us, then let us know via email and after the event, we can send you a receipt so you can take the funds as a tax-deductible donation! Please, we need the funds to feed our 30 Farm Program animals this winter; we cannot afford to return the funds and we do not have the staff to handle all of that extra paperwork. We thank you for your understanding. This is a fundraiser for our non-profit, children’s program. There are no refunds! Thanks on that.
Please, No Pets Allowed! They are a danger to our Farm Program animals (even if they are nice to you) and our farm dogs are vicious towards unknown animals. Our dogs are nice to people but could hurt your pets. Our dogs will do everything they can to keep our livestock safe. It is their job! We must have our farm dogs because we have had coyotes and raccoons kill our domestic (pet) animals. It would be impossible to explain about “service animals” to our dogs. They just won’t get it! Please do not bring any pets. We thank you.
Please follow these guidelines while visiting us:
- Wear a mask indoors. Outside, you do not need to wear a mask as long as you are separated out.
- Sanitize hands often.
- Keep a social distance of at least six feet from other families.
- Please do not enter the property if you are experiencing COVID-19 related symptoms. If you are sick, please stay home. Thanks.
We look forward to having you as our guest.
