Pumpkin season is officially in full swing. Of course, you’ve gotta visit your local pumpkin patch, but there’s another way you can celebrate the fall season and make some awesome family memories while doing so. This particular Pumpkin Patch Festival is held at the Western Railway Museum in Suisin City. Go on a train ride, pick out a pumpkin, and enjoy all sorts of seasonal activities throughout the month of October. Here’s what you need to know about the event!
Western Railway Museum's Pumpkin Patch Festival is officially open for the season. Welcoming visitors every weekend through October 24, this is a fun time that the whole family can enjoy.
Suisin City's Western Railway Museum is a historic destination that pays homage to California's rich railway history. Here, visitors can ride authentic streetcars and interurban electric trains while basking in the beautiful scenery.
Every fall, the museum celebrates the harvest season with the beloved Pumpkin Patch Festival. Throughout the month, families can come out to the museum and enjoy a fun-filled day outdoors. There's something for young and old at the festival, so bring the whole family!
This old-fashioned festival involves picking out the perfect pumpkin and taking on classic fall activities like hay rides, pumpkin chucking, pony rides, a petting zoo, and more. Admission is $20 for adults, $18 for seniors, and $15 for children.
Of course, the train rides are the highlight of any visit to the Western Railway Museum. You'll hop on a vintage electric express train that'll take you to the pumpkin patch at the museum. The first train departs to the pumpkin patch at 11:00 a.m. on festival days. Sit back and enjoy the ride!
All proceeds from the festival go to benefitting the museum and the local Rotary Clubs who host community activities throughout the year. Additionally, you'll go home with some charming fall memories that your family will cherish for years to come.
