Like most working farms, the exact open and close dates for Combs Farms Fall Festival 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.

Layers help too: fall mornings can start cold and warm up quickly once the sun is over an open field.
