Pumpkin Pick at OMF

The Pumpkin Pick Fall Festival

THIS JUST IN!

We have secured expert “horse help” now so please bring cash and plan on a horse ride when you join us!
Plus, we have secured a good source for pumpkins and gourds this year too so please support our non-profit, and purchase them from us!

Join us on the first full weekend in October!
Get out of the city and support our non-profit, children’s program while you meet and enjoy our 30 Farm Program animals at our beautiful, educational site in Corbett. Join Old McDonald’s Farm, Inc. for a lovely and peaceful outing. We have covered spaces and warming fires so join us rain or shine.

$10 per person. Kids 2 years old & under are free.

Included in that one entrance price:

A family hayride
The game area including mounting our new, stationary (fake) horse, a hay tube, roping a fake cow, etc.
Meet all of the program animals including the real horses, cow, goats, sheep, pig, farm dogs, kitten, etc.
Enjoy the Selfie Station to take your own pictures with a scare crow and farm props
Bring your own old clothes to make a scare crow out of our hay and twine. You can take that home.
Enjoy a pumpkin cookie
Make your own “ghost-y suckers”
Sip hot chocolate, tea or cider
Color the farm page in the schoolhouse and meet the “weeny dogs”
And roast marshmallows in our beautiful new Fire Pit structure.

All of this above is included in that per person price. Your funds helps us help kids with our non-profit, children’s program. We thank you in advance for the help!

Please bring cash for:

Miniature pumpkins, gourds and decorative pumpkins will be available for sale if we can procure them. (Pumpkin farmers come and go and with the wet spring, drought conditions in the summer and our event so early in October, pumpkins are hard to find sometimes.)

Please bring cash to purchase that perfect pumpkin or gourd if available, enjoy a real horse ride if we can get the skilled staff to help and if the rain holds off ($10 each ride), roast up that perfect hot dog with all the fixings and chips ($5 each) and 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. Please bring cash for the extras!

Prepayment is required to join us for the Pumpkin Pick event from this link below, and we will schedule families/groups starting at 10:00 a.m. We will allow families to join us every 5 minutes so 10:00, 10:05, 10:10 10:15, 10:20 and so on.

REGISTRATION IS OPEN NOW!

Chose the link below.

The Details:
We are open for a scheduled appointment only! Please do not just show up; we will not take “Walk Ins” this year.

We are on a “first come, first served” basis for the Pumpkin Pick. Pre-payment is required. Please make every effort to be on time. You are registered for the time slot that you chose.

Please find directions here. 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 so we can open it up to another family. Please let us know early. If you cannot join us, after the event, contact us so we can send you our post card receipt. With that, you can take the funds as a tax-deductible donation! We are a small non-profit and so we unfortunately cannot process refunds.

Please, No Pets Allowed! We come under what is commonly known as the “Zoo Clause” and to ensure everyone’s safety, outside animals are NOT ALLOWED at our Farm Program. Our farm dogs are responsible for protecting our program animals and are therefore vicious towards unknown animals, even pets and service dogs (though they love people!). Our dogs will do everything they can to keep our livestock safe from coyotes and raccoons. It is impossible to explain “service animals” to our dogs. No pets allowed please. Thanks for your understanding.

Please follow these guidelines while visiting us:

Please be respectful to other families and separate out.
Please wait your turn for the activity.
Sanitize hands often.
Keep a healthy, social distance 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 for your interest! We look forward to having you as our guest.
