Sissons’ Pumpkin Patch began in 2010 when Larry and Wendy Sisson purchased the family farm from Larry’s parents, Jim and Nancy Sisson. The property has been part of the Sisson family since 1966, when Jim and Nancy purchased the farm from the Dawson family.
Today, Larry and Wendy continue to welcome guests from the tri-state area to enjoy the beauty of the farm, experience the fun of the fall season, and create memories with family and friends. Their goal is to provide a place where visitors can return year after year and make Sissons’ Pumpkin Patch part of their own fall traditions.
We invite you to visit the Patch, enjoy the attractions, take in the scenic fall surroundings, and experience the family-friendly fun that makes each visit a treasured memory. We welcome your feedback and suggestions as we continue to improve and grow Sissons’ Pumpkin Patch. We hope to see you soon!
Sissons’ Pumpkin Patch offers family-friendly fun for all ages! Enjoy attractions including scenic wagon rides, our corn maze with a Mad Lib challenge, five giant slides ranging from 20 to 100 feet, a logic maze, obstacle course, straw fort, pedal karts, shelled corn bin, slingshots, and more.
Throughout the fall season, Sissons’ Pumpkin Patch hosts special events and activities for guests to enjoy. Join us for our Annual Pumpkin Smash, held every Saturday and Sunday in October. We’ve created our version of a sledgehammer out of the trunk of a small tree and attached a handle. This silly creation will allow you to hammer on pumpkins, gourds, apples…anything we can find to provide you with a fun-filled stress reliever.
We also welcome Scouts during Scouts’ Weekend, the first weekend of October, offering special admission pricing for scouts and leaders who show their insignia. It’s a great opportunity for groups to enjoy the Patch together and experience a day of fall fun.
Yes, we do sometimes. It depends on how hard and long it has rained. Safety is important to us, as well as your enjoyment while here. If you are traveling a long distance and there is a chance of rain, you might wish to reschedule for another day. Any cancellations will be posted on the home page and Facebook.
We accept cash and credit cards (VISA/Mastercard) at Admissions, Sales, and the Concession. There is a $5 minimum charge.
The general admission price covers everything except the food and sales concessions, the slingshots (3 for $1.00), the pumpkin smash (ranging from $ 1 to $ 5), and the horse-drawn wagon rides. This ride is approximately 15 minutes long and is $5 each per person.
There are absolutely no alcoholic beverages permitted on the premises. Outside food IS NOT permitted in the Patch; there is a concession available to purchase food.
Please stay tuned to the weather prior to your visit and plan accordingly with comfortable walking shoes and weather-appropriate clothing. Later in the fall, it is a good idea to be prepared with boots, coats, hats, gloves, layers of clothing, etc.
Most walking areas are grass; however, the maze walkway and portions of the slide area are dirt. [Dirt + Water = MUD] Dependent on how long and hard it has rained determines how muddy the conditions will be. So please plan ahead, watch the weather, and come dressed accordingly if it has rained.
Sorry, we do not allow pets. Exceptions will be made for assistance dogs. *** NOTE *** There is no shade for your pet to stay in your vehicle.
You may leave and return as often as you like on the same operating day. Please ensure your wristband or hand stamp is visible prior to departure for your re-entry. This includes going to your car for any reason.
