KUNA & NAMPA PUMPKIN PATCHES
Lowe Family Farmstead | Kuna
If you only visit one pumpkin patch in the Treasure Valley, Lowe Family Farmstead is hard to beat.
Lowe has become one of the area’s biggest fall traditions, and it is much more than somewhere to pick a pumpkin. You can easily spend several hours exploring the corn maze, taking a hayride, watching pig races, visiting farm animals, playing on the jumping pillows, exploring the ropes course, riding the trains, and working your way through dozens of other activities.
Their pumpkin patch has more than 50 varieties of pumpkins and gourds, and their famous MAiZE stretches across approximately 14 acres.

Shindig Farms | Nampa
Shindig Farms is where I’d send families with older kids, teens, or anyone who wants a little more adventure mixed into their pumpkin-patch day.
Their fall experience centers around Idaho’s Largest Straw Maze, with eight-foot walls and enough twists and turns to take around 30–45 minutes to navigate. There is also a pumpkin patch and wagon ride, giant slides, zipline, jump pads, corn pit, barrel ride, mini maze, tire wall, mechanical activities, and more.
Friday and Saturday nights in October bring the Haunted Straw Maze. 👀
The Haunted Straw Maze takes over Friday and Saturday nights in October with live actors and nighttime scares.

The Berry Ranch | Nampa
If you want a more traditional Idaho farm experience, The Berry Ranch is one of my favorites.
This is a real working farm rather than a giant fall festival. You can head into the field and pick your own pumpkin, either by walking out during weekday hours or taking a hayride on the weekend.
You can also shop pre-picked pumpkins, gourds, cornstalks, straw, seasonal produce, honey, meat, and other farm products while you’re there.
2026 Pumpkin Season:
September 25 - October 31
Walk to the Pumpkin Patch:
Monday - Thursday: 10am-2pm
Pumpkin Patch Hayrides:
Friday - Saturday: 10am-5pm
Sunday: 1pm-5pm
Admission/Pricing:
Walk to the field: $10 per person picking a pumpkin or $4 without picking (teacher/caregiver exceptions apply). Hayride prices vary by age; see the farm’s current pumpkin pricing.
The farm also sells pre-picked pumpkins. Its October 8 update says the last hayride leaves for the field at 5pm. Cards have a 5% convenience fee; cash or checks with ID are accepted.

Cabalo’s Orchard & Gardens | Kuna
Cabalo’s is another good option if your idea of pumpkin-patch day is more farm and less festival.
This family-run Kuna orchard grows fruit and vegetables using pesticide-free practices, and the season continues through the end of its pumpkin patch in October.
For 2026, Cabalo’s has confirmed the pumpkin patch is now open through the end of October.
2026 Pumpkin Season:
Open through the end of October
Hours:
Thursday - Saturday: 9am-6pm
Sunday: 1pm-6pm
Admission:

Farm Shopping
Hayrides during pumpkin season when available

Local Tip: This is a great pick if you’re more interested in choosing pumpkins and browsing a local farm than spending the entire afternoon doing rides and games.
CALDWELL & STAR PUMPKIN PATCHES
Cherry Hill Farms | Caldwell
Cherry Hill Farms combines the traditional pumpkin-patch experience with enough activities to easily turn it into a full fall outing.
Their Fall Festival includes an 8-acre corn maze, plus a smaller hay bale maze for younger kids. You’ll also find a pumpkin patch, jumping pillow, barrel cart rides, tube slides, farm animals, games, playground areas, and seasonal food.
The farm also continues its U-Pick season into October with apples and pumpkins depending on crop availability.

Lovely Hollow Farm | Caldwell
Lovely Hollow is easily one of the prettiest fall farm stops in the Treasure Valley.
Located on Chicken Dinner Road near the Sunnyslope Wine Trail, Lovely Hollow is both a U-Pick flower and pumpkin farm. Depending on when you visit, you may find rows of flowers still blooming alongside pumpkins, food and drink vendors, live music, craft nights, and other seasonal events.
It’s especially good if you’re looking for fall photos or want something that feels a little more relaxed than a giant pumpkin festival.
Lovely Hollow’s pumpkin availability and special events vary throughout the season, so this is one where checking the calendar before visiting is especially important.
2026 Season:
Seasonal through fall
Pumpkin dates and availability vary
October Hours Listed on the Farm’s Homepage:
Wednesday: 5pm-8pm
Saturday - Sunday: 10am-4pm
The homepage and FAQ show different seasonal hours. Use the event calendar and latest social updates to confirm your specific visit. Local listings show Pumpkin Days on October 17 and 18, but confirm with the farm before driving out.
Admission:
There is typically no separate entrance fee on regular open days, but guests are expected to purchase flowers or support the vendors on the farm. Special events may require tickets.
Activities & attractions
U-Pick Flowers
Pumpkins
Seasonal Events
Food & Drink Vendors
Live Music on Select Dates
Craft Nights
Photo Opportunities
Location:
18252 Chicken Dinner Rd, Caldwell, ID 83607
Local Tip: If you want those dreamy fall photos without quite as much “theme park at a farm” energy, put this one on your list.

Jeremy’s Pumpkins | Star
Jeremy’s Pumpkins is about as classic as it gets.
This longtime family-run Star pumpkin stop is known for its huge variety of pre-picked pumpkins, including traditional orange pumpkins, white pumpkins, Cinderella varieties, gourds, ornamental corn, straw bales, and cornstalks.
There aren’t giant rides or a corn maze here. You come to pick out pumpkins and fall decorations, take a few photos, and head home with the car considerably more orange than when you arrived.
Jeremy’s has been preparing for its 40th season in 2026, but the farm had not released its official opening details when this guide was updated. Your best bet is to check their social media before making the trip.
2026 Season:
40th Season
2026 opening dates and hours not independently confirmed; check the farm’s social updates before visiting

Activities & attractions

Local Tip: This is one of my picks when the mission is simply: “We need pumpkins.” Easy, classic, and very Treasure Valley.
EMMETT PUMPKIN PATCHES
Also on the Emmett list: The Farm in Emmett
Other current local guides include The Farm in Emmett for pumpkins, a corn maze and farm activities at 2590 E Black Canyon Hwy. I couldn’t verify its official schedule directly, so check with the farm for current hours and tickets before visiting.
3 Sisters Greenhouse Mumkin Fest | Emmett
3 Sisters Greenhouse transforms into Mumkin Fest each fall, combining a pumpkin patch with plenty of activities for kids.
Past seasons have included a zipline, bounce pad, corn pits, hay maze, hayrides, games, photo areas, and special event days throughout October.
The farm is active and Mumkin Fest is expected back, but I have not found a complete official 2026 schedule posted yet, so I’m leaving dates and pricing off until those are confirmed.
2026 Details:
2026 dates, hours and admission not independently confirmed. Check with the greenhouse before making the trip.

More Fall Farm Stops
Not every farm needs a giant corn maze to earn a spot on your fall list.
Wissel Farms | Nampa
Wissel Farms is a fourth-generation Nampa farm with a historic farmstand and separate U-Pick location.
I wouldn’t classify it as a full pumpkin-patch attraction like Lowe or Shindig, but it is absolutely worth knowing about during fall. Their farmstand carries pumpkins, cornstalks, and other fall items in October, along with seasonal produce and locally made goods.
Farmstand:
11085 Lake Lowell Ave, Nampa, ID 83686
Fall Finds:
Pumpkins
Cornstalks

Tips for Visiting Treasure Valley Pumpkin Patches
A little planning makes pumpkin-patch season significantly easier.
- Check current hours before leaving. Weather, crop conditions, and special events can change farm schedules quickly.
- Buy tickets ahead when available. This is especially helpful for busy October weekends.
- Visit earlier in the season for lighter crowds. September is usually considerably calmer than the weekends leading up to Halloween.
- Wear comfortable shoes. You will probably walk farther than you expect.
- Dress in layers. September afternoons can still feel like summer while October evenings cool down fast.
- Bring water and sunscreen.
- Wait until the end to buy pumpkins if possible so you aren’t hauling them around all afternoon.
- Check what is included with admission. Pumpkins, food, flowers, animal feed, and specialty attractions are often additional purchases.
- Don’t assume every pumpkin patch takes the same payment methods. It never hurts to have a little cash with you.
More Fall Things to Do Around Boise
Pumpkin patches are only the beginning of fall in the Treasure Valley.
Make a full fall weekend out of it with apple picking, U-Pick flowers, scenic hikes, fall drives, haunted attractions, seasonal food and drinks, Oktoberfest events, or a bike ride along the Boise River Greenbelt once the leaves begin changing.
I’ll continue updating this guide as the remaining farms release their 2026 dates and details, so save it and check back throughout the season.
