🎃 Pumpkin Patches & Fall Festivals in DFW

The calendar says fall, but North Texas clearly didn’t get the memo. With temps still hanging out in the 90s, it may not feel like sweater weather just yet—but that doesn’t mean you can’t dive into some pumpkin-spiced fun. Across DFW, pumpkin patches and fall festivals are officially in full swing, and they’re the perfect excuse to grab a latte (iced, let’s be real) and make some memories.

Here are five of the best spots to check out this season:

Hall’s Pumpkin Farm (Grapevine)

A true DFW staple, Hall’s offers the full fall lineup—pumpkin patch, corn maze, hayrides, and more. Weekends can get busy, so plan ahead if you’re looking for a quieter visit.

Blase Family Farm (Rockwall)

This smaller, family-friendly farm is perfect for younger kids. Bonus points: their homemade popsicles are famous.

Mainstay Farm Park (Cleburne)

If you’re looking for big festival energy, this is your spot. Rides, games, live music, and a pumpkin patch that feels like a Texas-sized fairground.

Pumpkin Nights at Howell Farms (Arlington)

For something different, check out Pumpkin Nights—a nighttime wonderland filled with hand-carved pumpkins, themed walking trails, food trucks, and live entertainment.

Autumn at the Arboretum (Dallas Arboretum)

The Arboretum goes all out with a pumpkin village built from over 100,000 pumpkins, gourds, and squash. It’s basically the fall photo-op of the year.

🍁 Pro Tip: Bring water and sunscreen—it’s still Texas, after all. Pretend it’s crisp and cozy, and let the pumpkin patch magic do the rest.

Whether you’re wrangling kids through a corn maze or just looking for an excuse to wear boots while it’s 95°, these spots bring the fall vibe to North Texas in their own way.
