Great Pumpkin Festival in Vernon

Heaven Hill Farm returns its annual season-long Pumpkin Festival for 2022, which kicks off the weekend after Labor Day and runs through the first week of November. With mazes and arcade games, you might forget the headlining activity is pumpkin picking, and there are plenty of winners to be had throughout the farm. A great activity for our short term housing guests of all ages and open until November 6. While some attractions are only available over the weekend, 40-plus activities are on hand for families during its nine-week run, from carnival rides and paintball to pig races and apple cannons. Beyond chowing down on apple cider doughnuts and other tasty delights, kids can mine for gemstones, learn about how bees make honey and create stunning sand art to take home.
