Unfortunately, due to poor weather conditions from the 2024 season, our pumpkin crop did not meet the standards needed to host the Pumpkin Patch. While we share in the disappointment of not being able to offer this beloved tradition, we’re excited to introduce the Dunham Apple Festival as a new autumn experience for our visitors.
