SEASON:  The 2023 season at Papa’s Pumpkin Patch is Sunday, September 10 – Saturday, October 21. We haul locally grown pumpkins and all of our other produce like squash, gourds, straw bales, corn stalks and decorative corn into the patch each week in September and early October so you always see a fresh supply of fall color.

HOURS:  Papa’s Pumpkin Patch is open 12-7 pm daily, weather permitting. Always double check the home page of Papa’s website or Papa’s Facebook page if you’re uncertain about the weather or our hours. We try to post our intentions for each questionable day by 11 am. If we need to close the patch during the day, we will post our closing on the website and Facebook page as soon as we make the decision. Mother Nature in North Dakota can be challenging sometimes!

COSTS:  General admission $6/person, infants and toddlers ages two or younger are free. Tickets are available at the door. Some activities and rides, concessions and private party spaces are available at Papa’s for additional fees.

After purchasing your season pass online, you’ll receive an email inviting you to upload your own picture for each person on the pass. Once Papa’s receives your photo the pass will be activated. If you prefer, Papa’s can snap your picture on your first visit to activate your season pass. Store the pass on your phone and present it at the Papa’s admission gate each time you visit. If you prefer, you may print out the season pass with your picture and use that for admission.

ACTIVITIES: There is always plenty to do at Papa’s! Most activities are free; some are only available on weekends and Thursday evenings with generous staffing support from community volunteers. Click here for a full list of activities and schedules.

PETS: Papa’s is pet friendly! We welcome pets on leashes at Papa’s. If you’ll keep a bag handy in case of any deposits, then we’d love to have you and your furry friend(s) join us at Papa’s Pumpkin Patch.
