It's that magical time of year when the leaves begin to change into a multitude of warm, beautiful colours and the weather turns crisp and cool.
While Halloween is one of the most popular nights during the fall season, pumpkin patches offer a fantastic way to enjoy time with friends, family, or another loved one.
Big ones, small ones, some as big as your head 鈥� there鈥檚 a size or shape of pumpkin to suit any creative idea you have in mind.
What鈥檚 more, these pumpkin patches offer far more than simply jack-o-lantern canvases. Whether you enjoy a good ol鈥� fashioned hay ride, a nice glass of wine, a slice of delectable apple pie, or even a bone-chilling chase through a corn maze, these fun spots have you covered.
Luckily, we鈥檝e compiled a handy list of some of the best pumpkin patches that the Lower Mainland has to offer.
Happy picking!
