Such a fun little farm! Perfect for families with kids to enjoy pumpkin picking, sunflowers, and the fall atmosphere.

We love Farmer in the Dell! I started going in high school with friends and 10 years later I’m still going with my husband and 2 young daughters! All the workers know us by name, and are always glad to see us! Love that it’s a real working farm, so there are improvements you see each year from their hard work as they expand their selection of pumpkins and even fruits and vegetables in the Spring and Summer. My kids love the duck race and slide and other play options they have! We look forward to creating many more memories there!

We really didn’t appreciate that they kept a young calf in a pen without the companionship of any other cows. When we asked the staff how old she was, they said she was only 6-weeks old and had been taken from her mother from a nearby farm. The calf appeared distressed and bored. They need to find some other form of entertaining guests besides keeping baby animals isolated in pens. I won’t be coming back here this year due to having this bad experience last fall. In response to the farm’s comments: I appreciate that you took the time to explain your practices, but my concern remains about the welfare of the animals—especially the calves. Even if they are “bummer calves” (orphans rejected by their mothers), calves are highly social herd animals and still need the company of others for their emotional and social well-being. Occasional human interaction and veterinary checks do not replace the comfort and companionship of being with other calves or cows.

A sincere pumpkin patch I first visited this patch in 2009 while attending a local school. I took it for granted that it was a sincere patch then. Last year, my fiancé and I decided to go to a patch for the first in years. After spending an hour seeking a sincere patch close to home and becoming frustrated, I recalled Farmer in the Dell. I was surprised to see they were still around and open. I was ecstatic to learn that they were also still a sincere pumpkin patch. Almost all locations these days, yes, these particular days, that advertise themselves as a pumpkin patch are misleading. They do not farm. They do not have a patch. What they have is a multitude of pumpkins purchased elsewhere set out in a field like a small children’s Easter egg hunt. That is not a sincere patch. That is a lie. Sure, some people think Fall and suddenly long to see “exotic animals” that have nothing to do with the season or this continent. All we wanted was an honest-to-god, whomever that may be, pumpkin patch where we could lift leaves, excited at what we might find, struggle if we should search the other lengthy rows for that one that might be that much better, and actually use a tool to snip it from
