Pumpkinland

Pumpkinland opens, September 14. Visit Linvilla Orchards during autumn to participate in the vibrant harvest traditions. The harvest marks the end of the growing season and cultures around the world celebrate this time with lavish festivals and century old customs.

The most familiar symbol of the fall is the pumpkin.  And Linvilla boasts over 100 tons of various types of pumpkins for you to choose from. You’re sure to find a pumpkin that’s just right.

Towering over Linvilla’s Pumpkinland stand larger than life scarecrows. As the giant figures watch you take scenic hayrides in the crisp autumn air and you search for the perfect pumpkin, they’ll see smiling faces and hear children’s laughter. It’s one of the most exciting times to visit Linvilla Orchards. There is so much to do!

Pumpkinland festivities include a variety of hayride options, straw bale and cornfield mazes, an impressive Jack-o-lantern exhibit and the annual Costume Parade.
