Petey's Pumpkin Patch

 

Petey’s Pumpkin Patch Video

The following video was taken in October of 2021. In it you’ll see Fantasy Farm’s miniature train, the family-friendly corn maze and Farmer Gary firing off the corn cannon. You’ll also see the fields of pumpkins and one of the farm animals.

When we were there it was about 4:30 pm, so just before closing (which explains why there weren’t so many people).

As you’ll see in the video, the event takes place on a real farm with a variety of interesting things to see and do.

To give you an idea of what to expect, check out the following video of the Reapers Maze of Terror. As you’ll see, it’s in a real corn maze and it’s really dark. There are a couple of sort-of indoor areas, and there are lots of live scary monsters!

This video was taken in October of 2021. It shows just a few of the scenes that we saw on our visit. It was pretty cool!
