Pumpkin Chunkin’

November 4 & 5, 2023

Open: 10am-5pm

Admission: $14/child & $16 /adult

smash

Bring your leftover jack-o-lantern to our smashin’ stations and let it fly! The Silo Drop and the Zip Wire Sploosh let you do the smashin’ yourself or bring your pumpkin to the Pumpkin Drop Zone and add it to our upside down “fireworks display” as the pumpkins are dropped from a 40ft lift. You will be sure to love giving your pumpkin one final ride. What happens to all those smashed pumpkins?… the pigs and cows love to eat them and we compost the rest.

Chunkin’ Event Schedule:
  • Weekend Smashing November 4 & 5 includes:
    • Cider Pressing Demos at 11:30am, 1:30pm and 3:30pm
    • Marshmallow Roasting 11am-4pm
    • Pumpkin Cannons open 11-5 (additional fee)
    • Pumpkin Drop Zone ~ 40’ Pumpkin Drop:  12pm, 2pm and 4pm
    • Pumpkin Zip Line & Silo Sploosh
    • The Pumpkin “Wall of Death”
    • Cow Train open weekends ($2/ride)
