About Arata's Pumpkin Farm
Arata's Pumpkin Farm is a pumpkin farm in Half Moon Bay, California, started in 1932 by John Arata Sr. and his family. Its main draw is the Minotaur's Labyrinth, a two-acre hay maze with a different design every year, alongside a six-acre cornfield, a pumpkin river, a haunted barn, pony rides, a petting zoo, a farm train and hayrides. For 2026 the farm opened in July and runs through October 31, daily 9am to 6:30pm through September and until 10:30pm on October Fridays and Saturdays. Activities cost $8 to $20 each and pumpkins $1 to $25.
