Morton Pumpkin Festival

The mission of the Morton Pumpkin Festival is to “Gather & Give Back” while generating resources that allow the Morton Chamber of Commerce to fulfill its mission to strengthen business and enhance community, at a superior level, through the implementation of a unique event that builds a sense of community among the people who live and work in Morton.

 

Roth Pumpkin Patch

The sprawling Pumpkin Playground is just what kids love! To run and play and just enjoy, well, being kids. And who doesn’t love seeing those smiling, happy faces! At the Roth Pumpkin Patch, we love seeing memories made and families and friends spending some much-needed, quality time together. From fun rides & slides to farmyard friends, pumpkins, and yummy food, we hope your family creates a whole lot of unforgettable memories at the Pumpkin Patch!

 

Ackerman Farms

Ackerman Family Farms, LLC, is your destination for all families looking for Fall Family Fun. We're open the third week in August until Halloween. Farmer John grows over 150 varieties of pumpkins, gourds and squash, and even the most particular individual will find the perfect pumpkin! Come get lost in our corn maze, take a hay rack ride on the weekend, meet all our friendly farm animals, pick out a great mum, and don't forget to shop in our cute gift shop where you'll find great food, drinks, and that little something extra for your fall decorating. Join the fourth and fifth generation of Ackermans, along with our awesome crew, for a day to remember on the farm.
