explore
October on the Kitsap Peninsula - the days grow shorter, darker, and as we approach Halloween, the family festivities and fun go into full swing.
Port Orchard, Bremerton, Poulsbo, and beyond host a variety of Halloween events for kids and families. So bundle up and grab the squad cause here are 5 Halloween pumpkin patches for family fun on the Kitsap Peninsula that we love!
Courter Country Farm
Poulsbo | 12000 Courter Lane NW
What Courter Country Farm lacks in corn mazes and fair rides, it more than makes up for with a gaggle of friendly animals and beautiful locally grown pumpkins. This traditional farm and pumpkin patch focuses on what is local and grounded and does it well. You can pet goats, feed turkeys and chickens, mingle with alpaca (our fave!), and snuggle with bunnies. And what’s better than snuggling bunnies?!
creek house farm
Port Orchard | 6060 E Collins Road
This sweet farmhouse on Beaver Creek is tucked back off the main road in Port Orchard. Well suited to families of all ages but especially accomodating to younger aged children, it’s a safe space to let them run free-range. Trails and a scavenger hunt through the forest, water-balloon launching, and feeding eager goats and sheep are favorite activities on this cute little family farm.
Plus, the pumpkins are plentiful!
bloedel reserve
Bainbridge Island | 7571 NE Dolphin Drive
Bloedel Reserve is a Bainbridge Island treasure, that is established and accepted…but did you know that Bloedel transforms its gorgeous gardens into a giant squash and pumpkin scavenger hunt? All manner of unique and eye-catching pumpkins + squash are artfully scattered throughout the reserve. If you are looking for a Halloween activity that is a bit more mature and less carnival-like than many other October activities, Bloedel Reserve will surprise and delight.
Pheasant Fields Farm
Silverdale | 13274 Clear Creek Rd
A cute Silverdale farm with a corn maze and plenty of pumpkins to go round, Pheasant Fields is a local favorite for fun with kids. In addition to the ubiquitous pumpkins, Pheasant Fields also offering seasonal herbs, greens, flowers, peppers, potatoes, veggies, and more! So skip the produce section at the grocery store and grab some locally grown goodness instead!
Suyematsu Farm
Bainbridge Island | 9227 Day Road
All manner of pumpkins await autumn visitors at this cozy Bainbridge Island farm beloved by islanders for making fall family memories. Tractor rides are a fun way to trundle across the quaint farm and the littles will love the hay maze. As a bonus, Suyematsu provides wagons to tow your prize pumpkin around, free parking, and no entrance fee!
