Best Pumpkin Patch in Oklahoma

Are there any pumpkin festivals in Oklahoma?

Absolutely. Going to a pumpkin patch to choose one of these beautiful gourds is only part of the fun during the fall in Oklahoma. But an entire pumpkin festival? It simply can’t be beat. One of the most popular ones is the Hugo Pumpkin Patch Festival. Located in the town of Hugo (hence the name of the festival), this annual fall event encompasses pumpkin carving, inflatable games, hayrides, and … elephants! Who could ask for more?

Is there a Botanical Garden in Oklahoma?

Oklahoma is a very beautiful state and you will find numerous stunning gardens in public parks, on the grounds of important buildings, and in other places. One of the most beautiful botanical gardens in the state is the Tulsa Botanic Garden. The property encompasses 170 acres filled to the brim with amazing multi-hued flora and verdant plant life. There is a lot to see and enjoy here so be sure to plan to spend at least a couple of hours.

I’m looking for a great barbecue restaurant in Tulsa.

Oklahomans love their BBQ and you will find great BBQ joints all over Tulsa. They are all so good you really can’t go wrong with any of them, but one of the most popular here is Oakhart Barbecue. Even though it is relatively new, it has already garnered quite a following. Menu items include, of course, amazing ribs, pulled pork sandwiches on potato buns, and their massive loaded baked potatoes piled high with meat.
