Choose From More Than A Dozen Varieties Of Pumpkins At Hawaii’s Aloun Farms’ 2019 Pumpkin Festival
While mainland America experiences all things autumn, including apple orchards, haunted attractions, fall foliage, and chilly weather, those of us who call Hawaii home can get a little bummed when the only seasonal change is a drop in the ocean temperature, increased rain, or a Starbucks cup print. Well, I have fantastic news for everyone who either misses seasons or wishes you were able to experience them, ever: leeward Oahu is home to its very own pumpkin festival.
Nestled on leeward Oahu in Kapolei on more than 3,000 acres is Aloun Farms, a family farm that started out on just five acres and now provides families across the island with local, fresh produce you won’t find anywhere else — including Ewa sweet corn, beans, and even pumpkins!
That’s right, in addition to being one of the largest farms on the island, Aloun Farms is also home to a fun-filled family event that brings autumn to the residents of Oahu.
In addition to choosing from more than a dozen varieties of pumpkins straight off the vine, you will also have the chance to harvest your own corn, beans, and sunflowers.
The event will also feature a variety of games, pony rides, tractor-pulled hayrides, picture booths, and live entertainment as well as access to a fantastic farmers market and local food vendors.
Running for three weekends this October, the entire family will love their day spent out in the country at Aloun Farms pretending it’s fall, picking out the perfect pumpkin, and learning all about Hawaii’s agriculture.
Admission is $3 per person, and parking is free. Pumpkins are priced according to size, and everything is cash only, so make sure you have enough for that giant pumpkin you have your eye on.
So, what are you waiting for? Affordable fall fun is hard to find in Hawaii, but Aloun Farms certainly delivers!
