The leaves are beginning to change colors, and the weather will soon grow cooler in Nebraska, and that means it’s pumpkin patch time! Throughout the years, our family has visited many pumpkin patches across the state. And, after organizing this guide, I realize we still have many more to see!

Nebraska offers so many great pumpkin patches, all with their own unique personalities: There are large, bustling patches with lots of attractions and more simple, country patches with low prices and small crowds.

Read about this year’s featured pumpkin patches below and then download and/or print the entire Nebraska pumpkin patch guide to get the scoop on more than 20 pumpkin patches across the state. Get ready to enjoy caramel apples, hayrack rides, the beautiful Nebraska scenery and pumpkins!
