Fall has finally arrived, and although it will be awhile before temps actually drop, it's still time to think about some fun 'fall' activities. If you are looking for a pumpkin patch, a corn maze, or hay rides, you might be surprised to know that we have quite a few here in Louisiana. I mean, honestly, the southern United States would not be my first destination to find pumpkins to pick, but thanks to the folks at Only in Louisiana, and Pumpkin Patches and More we have located some around the state.

Check out some locations below, and remember, you'll probably want to call before you go, just to be sure when the 2019 crop is ready. And I always check Pick Your Own to locate farms and other fun family outings as well. (Apple picking, anyone?). Happy fall, y'all.
