It’s time to start planning for the Pumpkin Patch season! Here is a useful 2023 Pumpkin Patch Guide for Metro Vancouver. This guide also includes a list of where to find corn mazes in the Greater Vancouver area.
There are 21 best pumpkin patches or corn mazes to explore in Vancouver and the Fraser Valley. These family-fun events are great for every age to enjoy this colourful time of the year.
Tips for the best pumpkin patch experience
1. Plan the timing of the visit. This year will be busier than ever at these popular events. Visit during the week or in the early morning to avoid crowds. Advance ticketing does try to limit the crowds, however, people tend to stay longer because they are having a good time, creating an overlap.
2. Always dress appropriately. This year is unusually hot and dusty, but it could get chilly and wet before the season is over and in the early mornings. Fields might get muddy and slippery. Good waterproof footwear, such as boots should be worn.
3. Bring a collapsible wagon. This will make it much easier if you plan to pick up pumpkins, farm-fresh produce and other goodies while visiting.
4. Take wet wipes and hand sanitizer. Washing stations are not always in convenient locations.
5. Leave your pets at home. Most of these attractions do not allow animals except if it is a service animal. Maan Farms sometimes has special dog-friendly events.
6. Plan ahead and save money. Look for early bird discount codes for some events – 2023 Haunted Halloween Guide for Metro Vancouver, Best Metro Vancouver Fall Events and Festivals 2023, and the 2023 guide for Vancouver Christmas events, holiday light displays and markets.
