October Pumpkin Fest

October Pumpkin Fest

Pumpkin Fest is every weekend in October

Nick and Bambi Venetucci dreamed of a farm where families could come pick out a pumpkin. Thousands of children over multiple generations have come to the farm for that very reason. Keep the tradition alive in your family for more generations to come!

Pumpkin Fest will be open starting October 4 and will run through October 27. Hours are Fridays from 9:30-2:30 and Saturdays and Sundays from 9:30-4:00.

Admission is $8 per person for 3 and up for general admission and 2 and under are free. Your general admission ticket gives you access to the pumpkin patch, hay maze, kids ball pit, yard games, concessions, craft fair, and lots of fall photo areas!

You will be able to purchase pumpkins for $10 (any size!), once you enter the farm. Please purchase your general admission in advance with the date you will be joining us!

We will have pick your own flowers available for purchase as well, before the first frost and then they are gone! Get your sunflowers, zinnias, marigolds and more.

Everyday there will be a craft fair in the barn and  farm animals from the 4-H on Saturday and Sundays.

**We will have a very limited number of wagons available to transport pumpkins to your car so be sure to bring your own wagon, stroller or backpack.

**Gather Mountain Blooms manages Pumpkin Fest so when you click on “Info and Tickets” you will be re-routed to their website with full details for the event along with purchasing tickets.

Kindergarten Classroom Program

P Pikes Peak Community Foundation has partnered with Catamount Institute to bring Kindergarten classes to the farm in October. If you are a kindergarten teacher, you may reach out to Catamount to see if you qualify and if they have room in their program schedule. We do not have a program for other grades, only the kindergarten classes. We also don’t have the ability to supply pumpkins to schools or nonprofits for other educational events. If you are a kindergarten teacher, you can get more information here.

**NOTE: We do not sell or donate bulk pumpkins.

Begin a new summertime tradition with our flower farm!

Make a family tradition out of cutting flowers from our fields every summer with Gather Mountain Blooms, the flower farmers here at Venetucci. They grow thousands of beautiful flowers from sunflowers to zinnias, cosmos, dahlias and so much more. Stroll the fields, sip coffee, and cut your own beautiful bouquet with friends.
