The Harrison Pumpkin Festival in Agassiz

With the fall season comes a wave of Pumpkin Patches across Metro Vancouver and the surrounding region. There is a new major pumpkin patch in Agassiz which began in 2023.

The Harrison Pumpkin Festival happens at the same location as the Harrison Sunflower Festival. It features more than twenty different types of pumpkins to choose from. A food truck is on-site each day and there are fun contests to enter throughout the festival.

When and Where?

The Harrison Pumpkin Festival takes place at Onos Farms, which also hosts the Harrison Sunflower Festival this year. The farm is located near Harrison Hot Springs at 5039 Lougheed Highway in Agassiz.

The inaugural Harrison Pumpkin Festival ran on select days between September 29th and October 29th in 2023. The attraction was open primarily on Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. The only other day it was open was on the Monday of the Thanksgiving Long Weekend.

What to Expect

The Harrison Pumpkin Festival is a family-friendly event. Expect to see people of all ages taking in the fall festivities. The farm is a very colourful attraction, as there are multiple shades of pumpkins in the field. There are beautiful flowers on site as well, including dahlias, zinnia, cosmos and sunflowers. The inaugural Harrison Pumpkin Festival also featured fun contests.

At the event you can expect to see people filling their arms with pumpkins. Folks can weigh their picks and compete in the heaviest pumpkin competition which runs for the full festival. There’s also a photo contest on Instagram showing off creative ways to carry pumpkins, so people will be taking lots of pictures.

During the Harrison Sunflower Festival, the farm features vintage vehicles, swings and some lawn games. All of those might be available for pumpkin patch visitors as well. Exact details, however, are to be confirmed.
