CRANBERRY, PA — Fall in the Cranberry area is often filled with fun family traditions: that first sip of hot apple cider, cool nights around a bonfire and the annual trip to a nearby pumpkin patch or field to find the best pumpkin.

Not only will you get a chance to pick out the perfect Halloween pumpkin, but many pumpkin farms offer complimentary activities such as hayrides, corn mazes and games for the kids.

Visiting an outdoor pumpkin patch is moderately safe, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Before you go, it’s best to call ahead to the field or check its website for guidelines and hours of operation.
