The Pumpkin Patch Express
The pumpkin patch is fall’s ultimate playground, so it’s the perfect time to catch a train to the Gold Hill pumpkin patch and pick your special pumpkin to carve or cook in the fall sunshine. These trains are a delightful tradition for kids of all ages and a good value too. Toddlers age 4 and under ride for free, and for a small fee, they can pick their own pumpkin. Children 5-12 also get a special rate. Adults can choose from pumpkin or no pumpkin tickets.
