Some of the kids were even dressed in their Halloween costumes. There we saw lots of families waiting for the next hayride. When we returned, we were dropped off behind The Pickin’ Patch store. The views on the ride were a combination of active farming shots and pretty fall foliage. A perfect amount of time for my kids to enjoy the experience, but not become too antsy. The return trip was slightly longer then the ride there, but it was still fairly quick. Thankfully my hubby had brought along a little towel so we could clean off everyone’s hands which were covered in dirt. ![]() It didn’t take long for one of the two hayrides to return to pick us up. Soon, though, we had selected our perfect pumpkins and were ready for our ride back. We also did a little airplane sight-seeing as the farm seems to be in the flight path to Bradley Airport. While out in the field, not only did we hunt for our pumpkin treasures, but we also took in the beautiful views of the changing leaves heading up to the Heublein Tower. So you can have fun and pick out a pumpkin in the field, but you can still get more pumpkins once you return. Fortunately, the pricing for the pumpkins in the field and the pricing for the pumpkins back at the store were the same. We were only able to manage a return trip with two pumpkins. You really had to head a bit deeper into the fields to find a healthy pumpkin. Though there were lots and lots of pumpkins in the field, the area as you first got off the hayride was very picked over and the only remaining pumpkins there were bruised and rotten.
