When we think of pumpkin patches, most of us probably imagine pumpkins dotted throughout rolling farmland in a rural area. Jack’s Pumpkin Pop Up in Illinois, however, sits right in downtown Chicago, boasting the only corn maze in the city. The popular autumn event is already underway, with precautions to protect guests during the pandemic.
Stretched across two glorious acres on Goose Island in Chicago, Jack's Pumpkin Pop Up has returned for another season, offering a fun and a safe time for the whole family.
All guests must wear a mask, agree to a temperature screening, and adhere to a social distance of at least six feet from others. Due to the pandemic, there will be no food or drink this year either.
