Cardanini’s Pumpkin Patch
Only open Fridays through Sundays during the pumpkin season, generally the end of September until they are sold out, this 5-acre pumpkin patch has 13+ varieties pumpkins.
You'll also find pumpkin and zucchini breads and cakes, and pies made from their ranch-grown fruits and veggies. They also have a BBQ (tri-tip, sausages and hot dogs) if you find yourself hungry after harvesting those pumpkins.
