Bring on the pumpkins, and all things fall! Our annual San Diego Pumpkin Patch Guide is here!

In San Diego, the change of season doesn’t mean sweaters, boots, and brisk weather – well, just yet. But that doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy all Fall’s festivities across the country.

Let’s give a big round of applause to Oma’s Family Farm, our amazing presenting sponsor this year!

Oma’s Pumpkin Patch features a charming array of attractions, including a whimsical hay maze, a petting zoo for all ages, and a hayride that offers scenic views of the farm’s picturesque landscape. Children delight in interactive games and activities, while adults can sample delicious pumpkin-themed treats and fall-flavored products.
