Agritourism & Farm Experiences near Clinton, IL

Clinton

Wagon Wheel Pumpkin Farm grows pumpkins and apples on Airport Road outside Clinton, with a corn maze, pony rides, and a bakery turning out cider doughnuts through the fall. Admission is free, and the family that runs it keeps prices reasonable enough that it shows up repeatedly in reviews. The farm opens Thursday through Sunday, 10am to 5pm, from early September through late October.

Clinton

Mariah's Mums & More, also known as Triple M Farm, runs u-pick strawberries, sunflowers, and fall mums on Airport Road east of Clinton, alongside sweet corn, watermelon, and a spring plant sale of annuals and hanging baskets. The farm market sells kettle corn, donuts, and ice cream, and hosts field trips and birthday parties through the season. Hours shift by month, running weekends only in spring and Thursday-through-Sunday in fall.

Sheffer Farms grows and sells decorative and specialty pumpkins, gourds, and squash on Stare Road near Oakley, with sizes running from miniature decorative types up to full carving pumpkins. A 1.5-acre corn maze rounds out the fall visit. The family has run the patch since at least 2015, keeping the operation focused on pumpkins rather than a wider fall festival.

Warrensburg

A family-owned pumpkin patch outside Warrensburg operating since 1997, with free admission, pick-your-own and pre-picked pumpkins, a wood maze, a corn maze, and a small kids' haunted house.

Milmine

Windmill Pumpkin Farm sells pumpkins from a stand on North 300 East Road in Milmine, in the flat farm country of Piatt County. The operation posts to Facebook when pumpkins are freshly picked, washed, and ready for pickup. Beyond that, it's a modest, family-scale operation without much of an online footprint.

Mount Zion

A u-pick apple orchard and farm market on Route 121 in Mount Zion. It's listed among the area's fruit and vegetable growers rather than a large event venue — a straightforward stop for fresh apples in season.

White Heath

Pontious Farm grows an extensive mix of produce on Blueberry Lane outside White Heath — blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, sweet corn, tomatoes, peppers, and salad greens among them. The road name gives away the specialty, but this is a diversified vegetable farm, not a single-crop operation. Call ahead for what's currently being picked.

Normal

Rader Family Farms is a fourth-generation working farm that opens to the public each September and October, along Route 66 in Normal. The main draw is a 12-acre corn maze, backed by pick-your-own pumpkins, hayrack rides, apple cannons, a jumping pillow, and weekend train rides — more than 50 activities in total. A retail store and food stands round out a day on the farm.

Macon

Golden Oldies Farm is a small CSA just south of Decatur in Macon, growing produce without chemical fertilizers, herbicides, or pesticides. Run by Keith Brown on Hibbard Road, the farm sells sustainably-grown vegetables direct to CSA members.

Towanda

Three kids started ABC Farms as a pandemic project in 2020, raising heritage breed chickens outside Towanda. Today the family sells farm-fresh eggs, raw honey, and small-batch cookies through a self-serve stand called the Eggloo, with sourdough, trees, and flowers planned as future additions.

Champaign

Joy of Illinois Farm works land on County Road 400E outside Champaign, in the row-crop farmland of Champaign County. No independent website or listing turned up online, so current offerings and hours are best confirmed directly with the farm.
