Every fall, we make a visit to an area pumpkin patch. We’ve visited every one within a two-hour drive from our home. This year, we chose Lyon Family Farms in Taft, Tennessee. We have been there once before and loved it, and this year was no exception.
On Friday afternoon, we checked the girls out early from school and surprised them with our annual pumpkin patch trip. Our first stop was the petting zoo, complete with pig races.
That baby calf is just the cutest cow I’ve ever seen. (And as a lover of all things cow, that’s saying a lot!) The kids had the best time feeding the animals and the animals had the best time eating Libby!
From the petting zoo, we tried out all the attractions. There was an awesome kid-sized zipline…
several massive slides that went super fast….
blow up slides that were soft and bouncy….
giant hamster wheels…..
and a corn crib.
We rounded out our pumpkin patch trip with a hayride to the actual pumpkin patch, where everyone chose a pumpkin to take home.
Selfies with a family of 5 are a struggle, for real.
If you are within driving distance of Taft, Tennessee, I definitely recommend Lyon Family Farms. Their rates are cheaper through the week and the crowds are smaller, so if you can squeeze a Monday-Friday visit in, I’d recommend that, too!
