SUMMIT, NJ — Going to a pumpkin field to pick the best pumpkin isn’t just about finding the perfect Halloween jack-o-lantern. It’s a chance to head out alone or with loved ones in a favorite fall ritual full of enjoyable activities.

Picking your own pumpkin is a good way to benefit the local farmers who grow them. Many pumpkin patches offer free activities like hayrides, corn mazes and games for the children.

Visiting an outdoor pumpkin farm is relatively safe; mask and social distancing guidelines and hours of operation may change. Before you go, it’s best to call ahead to the field or check its website.
