Our Checklist for a Perfect Family Day
No matter which farm you choose, a little planning can make the day go smoothly. Here are a few friendly suggestions from one parent to another:
- Wear Boots! It doesn’t matter how sunny it is, pumpkin patches can get muddy. Closed-toe shoes or rubber boots are your best friend.
- Bring Cash: While most places take cards, some of the smaller vendors for snacks or extra activities might be cash-only.
- Pack Wipes: Sticky fingers from apple cider donuts are a guarantee. You’ll be glad you have them.
- A Camera (and an empty memory card): You’re going to be making memories. Capture them!
