Pumpkin Patches in Tampa Bay, Halloween Events and Fall Festivals
This is one of our favorite fall activities for kids in Tampa Bay and even though it might be a bit of a drive depending on where you live, it’s well worth it!
A few tips before you head out on your corn maze adventure:
- Check with the farm to see if you need to buy an advanced ticket as some time slots may sell out.
- Bring plenty of water since it can get hot and to stay hydrated as you make your way through the corn maze.
- Wear closed toed shoes since you will be on a farm and there are bugs.
- Pack wet wipes for quick clean ups, since again…you’re on a farm.
- Wear plenty of sunscreen and bug spray since we’re in Florida!
- Bring some extra cash just in case there are activities available.
