Pick-your-own pumpkin patches are few in the Southern California area. Instead, you'll find pumpkin patches with pre-picked pumpkins, petting zoos, carnival rides, haunted houses and food trucks. Kids love this stuff.
Corn mazes are a popular seasonal activity and you can find a few in Southern California. But don't let you little ones go it alone. These can be confusing and you don't want your kids to panic if they think they are lost. Forneris Farms in the San Fernando Valley has over 4 acres of corn maze fun carved into a different image every year. They also have a market with fresh produce, and until November 4th, you can visit their 2012 Harvest Festival complete with tractor pulled train rides and pumpkins grown on-site. If you live in Orange county, you can visit the largest corn maze in Southern California (over 11 acres) at Big Horse Feed & Mercantile in Temecula. Their Harvest Festival includes costume contests, the corn maze, a pumpkin patch and a corn cannon. Harvest Festival activities are available on weekends only and the corn maze is open daily through October 31st.
