Wow Pumpkin Farms have really changed. We went Sunday and I was amazed at all the attractions. Corn maze, camel and pony rides, pig races, hay ride, haunted house, and zoo. The zoo had so many animals - camels, kangaroos, lemurs, tigers, leopards, zebras, bears and a whole lot more. The funny part is we went to get pumpkins and the pumpkins were crappy. I guess the crop this yr had trouble.

They did have some interesting names like Lindsey Lohog and Arnold Schwartz-a-pigger.

They did have some huge dragon looking thing that the kids could put pumpkins in and he would eat them. _________________ [shadow=pink][glow=deepskyblue]. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

We did go to Richardson's Farm last year where they tote the largest corn maze. But I believe that was in Illinois too. Maybe we'll hit WI next year. _________________ [shadow=pink][glow=deepskyblue]. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Hey Babs, I'm from Chi Town too and I went to the one down south in Homer Glen....Bengtsons Farm. www.pumpkinfarm.com Not only did they have a lot of cool stuff, but it got a bit pricey too to bring the kids. I took my niece and nephew and I spent quite a bit more than I thought I would. They get ya on the food. All I can say was that a cotton candy cost more there than a White Sox game and we all know that pro sporting events are all about making the money. Of course I didn't care because we had fun, but I may have to go back to my street performing ways before next year's trip to the patch.

Now if you want to see a real pumpkin farm, may I introduce you to the late great Howard Dill's (The Pumpkin King) pumpkin farm.
