Agritourism & Farm Experiences near Grinnell, IA

Grinnell

Uncle Bill's Farm was once named one of the best pumpkin farms in America by Travel + Leisure, with ten acres of pumpkin picking, a corn maze, a train depot, and farm animals outside Grinnell. The property also runs a gift shop and sells donuts, popcorn, apple cider, and candy apples through the fall season.

Montour

Hinegardner Orchard grows tree fruit on 295th Street outside Montour, a small Tama County town in the rolling farmland of central Iowa. It's a working orchard property rather than a large tourist destination.

Toledo

Upah's Pumpkin Patch is a five-acre operation about a mile northeast of Toledo, growing pumpkins, mini pumpkins, gourds, and squash alongside fall decorations. It's a smaller, straightforward stop compared to the festival-style patches nearby — no corn maze or midway, just a family growing and selling what's in the field that week.

Marshalltown

Appleberry Farm, also known locally as Atha's Orchard, is listed as a Marshalltown-area orchard. Current hours, crop details, and contact information aren't available online — check locally before visiting.

Marengo

This kid-friendly, pick-your-own strawberry farm outside Marengo offers pre-picked flats on request alongside strawberry jam, pies made to order, local honey, and kettle corn. It's a small, family-run operation incorporated in 2011, sized for a Saturday-morning trip rather than a big commercial patch.
