At Fair Oaks Farms, Harvest Season isn’t just a quick stop for a pumpkin photo – it’s an all-day fall adventure unlike anything else in the Midwest.
Here, you can start your morning with a dairy or pig tour, explore interactive exhibits in our museum-style adventures, and hop on a tractor wagon ride that takes you to our apple orchard and pumpkin patch.
Spend time wandering the rows to pick the perfect pumpkin, fill your bags with fresh apples, and treat yourself to warm apple treats and freshly made donuts. Let the kids run around in our outdoor play areas, challenge each other in our yard games and activities, and soak in the crisp country air together.
It’s the kind of place where you can slow down, spread out, and make a full day of real moments – and real fun.
Join us across the campus at Fair Oaks Farms as we showcase the versatility of the apple!
Take your pick of apple-centric entrees, desserts like apple donuts, and drinks like our apple cider slushie from all our locations at The Farmhouse, The Red Barn Milk Bar, and the Dairycatessen in the Gas Station.
In October, Farmers from all over Indiana will come to have the official Indiana Pumpkin Grower’s Association Weigh Off at Fair Oaks Farms! The winning pumpkin can be seen through October!
Enjoy pumpkin-themed games, delicious food from the Food Truck, the excitement of the weigh-off and take pictures with some incredibly large pumpkins!
