Pumpkin Patches near Loomis, CA

Granite Bay

Rickey Ranch grows its own pumpkins on Cavitt Stallman Road in Granite Bay and opens the fields every October 1st through the 31st, 10 a.m. to dusk. The family runs hayrides and horse rides alongside pens of pigs, goats, chickens, and sheep, and props skeletons on old farm equipment scattered through the property. Regulars say it's smaller and quieter than the county's bigger patches — plus there's a vineyard on the same ground.

Grass Valley

The Haunted Pumpkin Patch in Grass Valley runs a pumpkin patch by day and a haunted house by night through November, with separate mild (ages 5+) and scarier evening experiences. Daytime admission is $15; nighttime tickets run $15-$20 depending on age. They take cash, credit, and Venmo.

Wheatland

Bill and Sandy Bishop started this Wheatland farm in 1973 and it now claims the largest u-pick pumpkin field anywhere, with hayrides pulling visitors out into the rows. A corn maze, carousel, petting zoo, and Mrs. B's Country Bakery round out the grounds, plus Bishop's Other Cider for the 21-and-up crowd. The 2026 season runs September 4 through November 15.

West Sacramento

Dave's Pumpkin Patch, part of Vierra Farms on Burrows Avenue, has drawn Sacramento Valley families for over 30 years with a 20-acre corn maze, hayrides, a jumping pillow, pig races, and Dave's apple cider cinnamon donuts. The adjacent fruit stand keeps regular hours year-round; the patch itself only accepts cash or check on site.
