About the Richmond Country Farms Pumpkin Patch
Every fall, Richmond Country Farms turns its fields into one of the Lower Mainland’s most popular pumpkin patches. The season runs from late September through Halloween, with a wagon ride out to the patch, a corn maze, farm animals, live music on weekends, and a pumpkin to take home with every ticket.
Wagon Rides and the Farm Train
Admission includes a wagon ride out to the pumpkin fields, pulled by tractor. On weekends, the CP Huntington farm train also runs, giving younger visitors an extra way to explore the grounds.
Corn Maze and Festival Area
Beyond the pumpkin fields, a corn maze and central festival area offer more to explore, with food trucks and live music adding to the atmosphere on busier weekend days.
The Pumpkin Fields
The main draw is, of course, the pumpkin fields themselves, where every visitor picks a pumpkin to take home as part of admission.
Photo Spots and Fall Decor
The patch is set up with several fall-themed photo spots throughout the grounds, from a rustic bench to a vintage bicycle display, along with seasonal touches like a witch display for the Halloween crowd.
A Family Day Out
Between the wagon ride, the animals, the maze, and the photo spots, the patch is built as a full afternoon out rather than a quick pumpkin pickup, and it draws steady crowds of families throughout October.

- Arrive early on weekends for shorter lines and better light for photos
- Food trucks on site sell items like mini donuts, lemonade, tacos, grilled cheese, and hot dogs
