The Father's Field Pumpkin Patch & Market Place
The Father's Field Pumpkin Patch & Market Place in Plainview takes the top spot, rated 5.0 out of 5 from 29 reviews. Visitors come here for farm store.
13940 Chula Rd, 72857
Farm storeThe Father's Field Pumpkin Patch & Market Place is ranked #1 on this list, located at 13940 Chula Rd, Plainview, AR, 72857. It carries a 5.0-out-of-5 rating on Google from 29 reviews, which puts it among the more established pumpkin patches we track near Plainview. Beyond the pumpkin field itself, it's tagged for farm store, so there's usually more to a visit than just picking a pumpkin and heading home.
Recurring themes in reviews of The Father's Field Pumpkin Patch & Market Place include hayrides, local pumpkin patch, hay, train ride and has field trip options — not a direct quote from any single visitor, but the topics that come up most often when people describe the farm. Most pumpkin patches share a similar core visit regardless of what's formally listed: a field or lot of pumpkins priced individually or by weight, sometimes reached by a short wagon ride, with an extra attraction like a corn maze or animal area running at many farms in season. What's actually open on a given day depends on the week and the weather, so the listing above is a starting point rather than the full picture.
Hours aren't listed for The Father's Field Pumpkin Patch & Market Place in our data. Most pumpkin patches run daily or weekends-only from mid-September through the first days of November, but the surest way to know is to call ahead or check the farm's website before you drive out. Admission pricing isn't listed for The Father's Field Pumpkin Patch & Market Place either — pumpkin patches generally charge one of three ways (free entry with pumpkins priced individually or by weight, a flat gate admission bundling attractions, or a per-attraction wristband system), so it's worth asking which applies here before you go. Payment methods aren't listed, and a meaningful share of family-run patches are cash-only for field admission and wagon rides even when the farm store takes cards — bringing some cash as backup avoids an awkward trip back to the car at the gate.
Like most working farms, the exact open and close dates for The Father's Field Pumpkin Patch & Market Place can shift year to year with weather and how the pumpkin crop comes in, even though the general window is fairly predictable. If you're planning a special trip, a weekday morning is consistently the quietest time to go, with shorter waits for wagon rides and easier parking than a weekend afternoon. Wear shoes you don't mind getting muddy — pumpkin fields are working farmland rather than paved lots, and they get soft fast after rain — and call ahead if it's rained heavily in the last day or two, since field access and hayrides are usually the first things a farm closes when the ground is saturated. Layers help too: fall mornings can start cold and warm up quickly once the sun is over an open field.
The Father's Field Pumpkin Patch & Market Place sits, near Plainview, AR, with parking typically in a grass field rather than a paved lot — allow a few extra minutes on busy weekends for staff or volunteers to direct traffic, and if you're navigating by GPS rather than the link on this page, search the farm name directly rather than just the street address, since rural addresses sometimes route to the wrong gate.

Most pumpkin patches run daily or weekends-only from mid-September through the first days of November, but the surest way to know is to call ahead or check the farm's website before you drive out. Admission pricing isn't listed for Mountain Home Berry Farm either — pumpkin patches generally charge one of three ways (free entry with pumpkins priced individually or by weight, a flat gate admission bundling attractions, or a per-attraction wristband system), so it's worth asking which applies here before you go. It accepts checks, credit cards and debit cards, though it's still smart to carry some cash — field admission and wagon rides at farms like this are sometimes handled separately from the main store.
Like most working farms, the exact open and close dates for Mountain Home Berry Farm can shift year to year with weather and how the pumpkin crop comes in, even though the general window is fairly predictable. If you're planning a special trip, a weekday morning is consistently the quietest time to go, with shorter waits for wagon rides and easier parking than a weekend afternoon. Wear shoes you don't mind getting muddy — pumpkin fields are working farmland rather than paved lots, and they get soft fast after rain — and call ahead if it's rained heavily in the last day or two, since field access and hayrides are usually the first things a farm closes when the ground is saturated. Layers help too: fall mornings can start cold and warm up quickly once the sun is over an open field.
Mountain Home Berry Farm sits, near Mountain Home, AR, with parking typically in a grass field rather than a paved lot — allow a few extra minutes on busy weekends for staff or volunteers to direct traffic, and if you're navigating by GPS rather than the link on this page, search the farm name directly rather than just the street address, since rural addresses sometimes route to the wrong gate.
