Best Place in CT for Pumpkin Picking Is...

Every year we go pumpkin picking, some years we get lazy and just head to Stew Leonard's. Since we had our daughter we love taking her pumpkin picking where we can go on a hay ride and get pumpkins in a patch. This year I was determined to try something new and wanted to get pumpkins from a real field. After some research we decided to try Jones Family Farms in Shelton and I must say it was AWESOME.




The place is huge! There are huge tractors and a ton of people but they have it organized so well that you really aren't waiting in line too long for a hay ride. Hay rides are $2 a person and they take you out to these fields where the pumpkins were grown and you pick your pumpkin. Or if you do not want to do the hayride they have plenty of pumpkins to pick from right in the main area. They had green, gray and even warted pumpkins. They have a little farm with pigs, they sold cider and cookies. They had little play houses for the kids to play in. For the adults they had a wine tasting. This place was perfect for families, couples and kids


So if you are looking for the best place to go pumpkin picking I highly recommend Jones Family Farms.
