Make Autumn Great With A Visit To Maine's Little Known Pumpkin Park

It’s the best time of year! Nope, not Christmas just yet. It’s autumn in New England and that means warm apple cider, apple cider donuts, and lots of coziness. There’s just something a little more special about enjoying fall in Maine compared to any other place in the US. It could be that we’ve got the best fall foliage. Or, it could be that we have so many wonderful, family-run pumpkin farms in Maine. This one might not be on your radar, but you’ve got to check it out!

Pumpkin Valley Farm, located in Dayton, Maine, is one of the best ways to enjoy a fall weekend in Vacationland.

It's a totally working farm with a variety of animals.

But that doesn't mean they're not dedicated to having good old-fashioned fun when autumn rolls around!

Along with acres of pumpkins to pick and buy, this farm offers tons of activities for kids and adults that will easily take up the better part of a day.

And with their easy admission system which is described below, just one wristband gives you access to most of the fun things you can do here.

The corn maze might be the most intricate you'll find in the state and waiting for the announcement of its theme is as almost exciting as the maze itself.

This year celebrates the 25th anniversary of PBR Bull Riding.

You might even run into some special visitors.

There are lots of activities for kids, including the corn pit filled with millions of kernels of corn.

And the cow train is as fun to watch as it is to ride.

Spend some time enjoying the farm, but make sure you stop into the market before leaving.

You'll definitely want to grab yourself some famous homemade kettle corn!

And of course, you can't forget the pumpkins!

Pumpkin Valley Farm is located at 124 Union Falls Rd., Dayton, Maine. They’re open weekend between September 22nd and October 28th on Saturdays and Sundays from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. They’ll also be open this year on Monday, October 8th between the same hours. You can reach them on 207-929-4088. Get all the information you need to plan a visit on their website or check them out on Facebook.

Entry is managed using a wristband. One wristband is $10 for adults, $8 for seniors and free for children under 2. Everyone must be wearing a wristband to get inside. It provides access to the amazing corn maze, the jumping pillow, play areas, farm animals, face painting and a hayride to the pumpkin patch. It also gives visitors two shots on the corn launcher, and one ride for children on the cow train. Parking is free.
