There are no shortage of corner pumpkin patches that start popping up this time of year... and for most city slickers, we don't really know any better.
Let me tell you between Encinitas and Del Mar we have some killer pumpkin patches that come to town about and they are about as grand as the Del Mar Fair.
However if you want to take you kids some where, where they can really see what farm life is like, I highly recommend Bates Nut Farm. Bates Nut farm is a family run farm since 1921 and every year it just keeps getting bigger and better!
They have tractor rides, vendors selling their wears, a general store with all kinds of fun stuff, horse rides, petting zoo and not to mention pumpkins... and plenty of them!
Be sure to check out Bates web site for other fun things they do through out the year like Cars Shows, Arts and Crafts Fair, Scout Day, Farm Education Day, Scarecrow Contests and Christmas Fair.
Then of Course for all you people in the know, on your way out of Bates Nut Farm...
keep your eyes open for the guy with too much time on his hands..
He has built a replica of the US Capital entirely out of match sticks.
Cheers,
