Grampaw's Punkin Patch

Grampaw's Punkin Patch A place for fall fun. Grampaw's at Whitetail Valley Farm is a down to earth place to celebrate Fall! If the open sign is out stop in! Today that's not the case.

About Our Days and Hours:
Our hours vary depending on weather and work at the farm. Pumpkin season is also apple season so there's lots of work to do! We have apples, pumpkins and other fall decor items, gifts and candy baskets too. We are usually open weekends, but other times it is best to give a call or a Facebook message to set up an appointment. We want to be sure that we can get you th

e punkins that you need! Sometimes we have special events, wagon rides and such. Of course these also depend on weather too. Keep an eye on our page for the latest information. Who We Are and What We Do:
At Grampaw's we don't go much for the gory Halloween stuff. We are more about the beauty of the autumn season and the celebration of the blessing of rural life. It is a safe place for the little ones to pick out their own special punkin. It is a lot better setting than the store aisle at WalMart. Used to be about every kid had a Grampaw's farm to visit. Farms are bigger and more industrialized and not many Grampaws farm anymore. Our goal is to be a Grampaw's farm to visit and enjoy today. Prices:
We sell punkins, but our most important product is memories. For payments we take cash, Venmo and can do Paypal. Grampaw is gonna get set up for credit cards one of these days but so far it hasn't happened. Every year some folks say the prices are high and others say how can you sell things so cheap. I guess that's how we know we're somewhere in the ballpark. We aren't going to be millionaires selling punkins. Our costs have gone way up like everything else. We can't compete with the big retailers on price. We hope we offer something more than just buying a pumpkin. We don't charge an admission. We aren't an amusement park. If you enjoyed a wagon ride or some other activity and want to toss a free will donation in the box that is great. It helps us cover the costs. Totally up to you. Our community is important to us. This year 10% of the profits goes to the new Stanton Child Resource Center. A Safe Visit to Whitetail Valley Farm:
Whitetail Valley Farm is a working farm. We provide a safe experience for our guests but we aren't a city park. There are the usual hazards that are part of rural areas, rough ground, wet grass, slippery mud and all the things you might find out in the country. Out in the rougher areas there are thorn bushes and possibly some poison ivy too. Please be careful! Watch the kids and follow instructions and we all will have a fun and safe time together! Pets:
If you bring your pet to the farm it must be under control on a leash. Animals get nervous in unfamiliar surroundings. We don't want your pet to hurt anyone or get hurt themselves. We're on a busy road going into the park and trucks pulling fifth wheel trailers can't stop quickly. There are lots of acres where a pet could get lost trying to chase a rabbit. We want pets to be safe too. Just Ask! If there's anything that you would like to know, or an idea for something fun to do, don't be afraid to ask! Thanks for checking us out. We're looking forward to your visit!

Trick or Treat is done and it is All Saints Day again. Thanks everyone who came to visit. Thanks everyone who picked out a punkin to take home. Though the punkin crop wasn't the best this year the apple crop made up for it! Had some really nice apples this year. Grampaw still has some gourds and decorative squash if anyone needs something for Thanksgiving decorating (or just to eat!) We will keep them inside so they don't freeze. Stop out when the winery is open 2-8pm Friday and Saturday, 2 to 6pm on Sunday and we will be glad to help you out.

Grampaw still has some gourds for fall decorating and a few pie punkins available. If you are wanting to recapture that old time Thanksgiving flavor, you can split one of these in two and scoop out the seeds. Put the halves cut side down into a shallow pan with a little water in the bottom. Bake them until they are tender. Scoop out the punkin goodness from the shells, run it through the food processor if it is a little stringy for your liking. Some sugar spices and your favorite pumpkin pie recipe and you are ready for a fall treat.

Thanks everyone who stopped out to Grampaw's this year. Our selection was not great but we had a great time with the preschool and everyone who visited.

We will be around Friday, Saturday and Sunday afternoons through November. Apples are available too!
