It wouldn't feel like Fall without a trip to the pumpkin patch. In this guide compiled a detailed list of the top pumpkin patches in San Francisco, Marin & Sonoma Counties, Half Moon Bay, the Peninsula, South Bay Area, and East Bay.


This list contains a a wide range of pumpkin patches from the expensive ones with many attractions and rides, to the more traditional farms with fewer attractions but free admission. I hope you find the list helpful. Have fun on your pumpkin patch adventures this season!
