Chicago Park District's Pumpkin Patch

A one-day fall event at Humboldt Park run jointly by the Chicago Park District and the Humboldt Park Advisory Council, built around pumpkin painting and other kid-focused activities rather than a full patch to walk through.

Glorify God Pumpkin Patch & Corn Maze

Salem, IL

Glorify God Pumpkin Patch & Corn Maze sits on South Walnut Street in Salem, running the classic fall lineup of pumpkin picking and a corn maze. It's a seasonal stop, so hours and pumpkin availability shift as the season winds down toward Halloween.

Grizzy's Pumpkins

Marengo, IL

Grizzy's Pumpkins sells pumpkins from a farm at the corner of Route 20 and Coral Road outside Marengo, in Coral Township. It turns up in local farm directories and a scattering of social posts from visitors, but runs without a dedicated website. Worth a call ahead to check what's picked and ready.

Harvest Moon Pumpkin Patch

Timewell, IL

Harvest Moon Pumpkin Patch, part of Harvest Moon Fun Farm outside Timewell, runs a full fall lineup — pumpkin picking, a corn maze, haunted house, miniature golf, wagon rides, and an on-site café — daily from mid-September through Halloween.

Heap's Giant Pumpkins

Minooka, IL

A six-generation family farm off US Highway 52 in Minooka built around a 25-acre u-pick pumpkin patch, corn maze, and flashlight maze after dark.

Johansen Farms Children's Zoo and Pumpkin Patch

Bolingbrook, IL

Johansen Farms runs a seasonal pumpkin patch stocked with roughly 25,000 pumpkins each fall, plus a pie house serving fresh apple cider donuts.

Sidney, IL

Negangard Pumpkin Patch raises everything it sells on a family farm in rural Sidney, from oversized pumpkins to colorful varieties and gourds for fall decorating. It's open daily 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. during the season and has built a loyal following across Champaign County for its selection and size range.

Patch 22, Ltd Pumpkins + Pony rides

Wadsworth, IL

Patch 22 grows thousands of pumpkins in a range of varieties, including some exotic types, on Kelly Road in Wadsworth. The farm runs horse-drawn and tractor-drawn hayrides on restored John Deere equipment, a petting farm with goats and donkeys, and pony rides on Sundays from May through Halloween. It's built around straightforward family fun rather than elaborate attractions.

Pumpkin Patch

Barrington, IL

This Old Sutton Road address in Barrington was once listed as a pumpkin patch, but current records tie the property to a construction business rather than an active farm stand. Whether pumpkin picking still happens here couldn't be confirmed.

Pumpkins Chicago

Chicago, IL

A seasonal pumpkin lot in Chicago's Lakeview neighborhood on North Clark Street, selling pie pumpkins, gourds, corn stalks, and hay bales through fall. It also runs $20 pumpkin-carving parties that include a medium pumpkin, carving kit, table space, and decor.

Pumpkin Works -

Paris, IL

Pumpkin Works ran as an Edgar County fall attraction for 26 years under Paul and Sherry Staley before closing in 2018. L&A Family Farms has since taken over fall activities at the same stretch of Terre Haute Road, carrying the tradition forward under a new name — worth checking current listings before assuming Pumpkin Works itself is still open.

Relleke Farms Pumpkin Patch -

Granite City, IL

Relleke Farms has worked this ground since the late 1800s, though the pumpkin patch and fall festival is the newer part of the business, running weekends from late September through Halloween. Visitors pick their own pumpkins or buy ones already picked, then stick around for a petting zoo, animal rides, wagon rides, food trucks, and live music. The farm recently marked its 45th festival year.

Rogers Pumpkin Farm

Lomax, IL

Rogers Pumpkin Farm has grown pumpkins in Henderson County since 1996, starting on less than an acre.

Open 8 a.m. to dusk off Highway 96 near Lomax.

Schaefer Pumpkin Patch

Beecher City, IL

Schaefer Pumpkin Patch has been a side operation since 2016, run by a couple who work day jobs the rest of the year, one as a hospital sonographer, the other in mobile home services and hay.

Golden, IL

Seneczko Pumpkin Patch is a pick-your-own pumpkin operation in west central Illinois, on North 2400th Avenue outside Golden. Kids' activities include a hay mountain and corn pool alongside the pumpkin picking, and the farm's Facebook page has drawn nearly 4,000 followers over the years.

Settler's Pond Pumpkin Patch

Beecher, IL

Settler's Pond Pumpkin Patch runs seasonally in Beecher, part of Will County's fall pumpkin-patch trail. No current web listing was found describing hours or activities. Confirm open dates directly before visiting, since small seasonal patches like this shift year to year.

Sheffer Farms Pumpkin Patch

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.

Shreve's Pumpkin Patch

Barnhill, IL

Shreve's grows more than the name suggests: alongside pumpkin picking, the family-owned patch on County Road 150 N offers corn and strawberry picking earlier in the season, plus hayrides once fall arrives. Their Facebook following, over 7,300 strong, points to a loyal regional following built well beyond a single October visit.

Sleepy Hollow Pumpkin Patch

Smithshire, IL

Sleepy Hollow runs an 8-acre corn maze near Roseville, backed by tractor rides, a bounce house, and a corn pit for younger kids. The u-pick pumpkin fields are the main draw on Raccoon Hollow Road, with tickets sold in advance through Simpletix rather than at the gate. It's a smaller operation, just over 1,100 Facebook followers, built for a single fall season each year.

Sugar Grove Pumpkin Farm & Produce

Sugar Grove, IL

Sugar Grove Pumpkin Farm opened in 2015 just off the I-88 interchange on Route 47, and the pumpkin count alone sets it apart, more than 60 varieties spanning carving, heirloom, and mini types. The farm stand runs from mid-July through pumpkin season with sweet corn, tomatoes, peppers, squash, and farm-fresh eggs, then shifts fully to fall with a corn maze, mums, and gourds. Admission and parking are free.

Sycamore Pumpkin Patch

Sycamore Pumpkin Patch ran u-pick pumpkins on Quigley Road for about a decade before closing in 2004. The 41-acre property has since gone back to farmland, and pumpkin seekers in DeKalb County now head to the Sycamore Pumpkin Festival downtown or nearby farms like Sugar Grove Pumpkin Farm instead.

The Great Pumpkin Patch

Lyndon, IL

The Great Pumpkin Patch operates out of Lyndon, on Black Road in Whiteside County, growing and selling pumpkins through the fall season. The farm keeps a low online profile — no working website turns up, just a handful of directory listings confirming the address and category. Worth a call before visiting, since pumpkin farms this size tend to run on their own clock.

The Lindberg Pumpkin Patch

Caledonia, IL

Lindberg Pumpkin Patch farms seven acres on Illinois Route 173 outside Caledonia, with a Harvest Barn stocking pre-picked pumpkins for anyone who'd rather skip the walk into the field. The farm runs tractor rides, a corn maze, and barnyard animals through the fall, and calls itself northern Illinois' favorite fall stop — a claim the reviews seem to back up. Open daily 9am to 6pm, September 11 through Halloween.

The Pumpkin Patch

Caledonia, IL

A family-run pumpkin patch operates every fall on Illinois Route 173 outside Caledonia, offering a corn maze, barnyard animals, and tractor-pulled hayrides across the grounds. A heated barn stocks pre-picked pumpkins for anyone who'd rather skip the walk into the field. The farm runs daily through the end of October, weather permitting.

The Pumpkin Ranch and Corn Maize

Albany, IL

The Pumpkin Ranch and Corn Maize runs a fall agritourism stop outside Albany, a small Mississippi River village in Whiteside County. Expect the seasonal staples the name promises — a pumpkin patch and a corn maze — though current hours and pricing aren't published online. Confirm details locally before visiting.

Tom and Zach's Pumpkin Patch

Lockport, IL

Tom and Zach's Pumpkin Patch works about an acre and a half of Bruce Road in Lockport, small enough that picking still means walking the field with your kids rather than riding out to it. The farm provides wagons and cutting tools, sells pie pumpkins, corn stalks, and straw, and sets up photo props around the grounds. The listing showed the patch closed for last season, so it's worth confirming current status before visiting.

Tom's and Zach's Pumpkin Patch

Lockport, IL

Tom's and Zach's Pumpkin Patch runs seasonally in Lockport, part of Will County's fall pumpkin-patch circuit. No current web listing was found describing specific hours or activities. Call ahead before visiting, since small seasonal patches like this often shift year to year.

Vana's Pumpkin Land

Kankakee, IL

Vana's Pumpkin Land turns its Kankakee fields into a fall destination each year — pumpkin and squash picking, a corn maze, hayrides, and a petting zoo, on Route 17 west of town. It runs as a straightforward u-pick operation without the ride lineup of bigger regional farms, so plan on a few hours rather than a full day.

Wagon Wheel Pumpkin Farm

Clinton, IL

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.

Windmill Pumpkin Farm

Milmine, IL

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.

Wolf Ridge Pumpkin Patch

Timewell, IL

Wolf Ridge Pumpkin Patch shares its rural route address outside Timewell with Harvest Moon Pumpkin Patch, suggesting a name change or dual listing for the same property. Independent detail specific to "Wolf Ridge" is thin online — for current pumpkin varieties, hours, and activities, call ahead before making the drive.

Zaiser Pumpkin Farm

Deer Creek, IL

Zaiser Pumpkin Farm has expanded to nearly three acres of pumpkins in the Washington/Deer Creek area, growing decorative gourds, mini pumpkins, and classic jack-o'-lantern varieties alongside new types added most seasons. Visitors pick their own, take a hay rack ride out to the patch, and can grab corn stalks and fall decorations on the way out. The farm notes on Facebook that GPS directions can be unreliable, so it's worth calling first.
