When Pumpkin Picking Season comes around, I always think of the Faulkner Farm. I'm not sure it is the most sincere pumpkin patch around but I'm sure the Great Pumpkin would approve, regardless. Through the month of October they have a Pumpkin Patch and Harvest Festival that is a great destination for those of us who are kid-strapped and looking for something fun to do.

They have all sorts of stuff going on besides the pumpkin patch - face painting, pony rides, live music, hay rides, the list goes on. Do yourself a favor and go on an empty stomach because the food is really good – fresh corn on the cob, tri-tip sandwiches, fresh lemonade, kettle corn, baked goods and so forth.

They're located in Santa Paula, CA which is in Ventura County midway between LA and Santa Barbara. Coming from LA, we like to take the Pacific Coast Highway for obvious reasons - the view is a perfect way to end the day.

Man, oh man, I LOVE this time of year. However, last year we were totally bummed to find out that Faulkner Farms had no festival and no punkin patch!

So, I'd call this year before making the visit... http://ceventura.ucdavis.edu/HansenTrust/Fall_Pumpkin_Patch.htm

I think they are better than the other pumpkin patches in the area, though!

Their Web site says they're having it every weekend in October. I wonder what happened last year...bad weather, perhaps? Anyway, I feel a road trip to SoCal comin' on... :-)
