What to expect at Mile High Farms

Based on its listing, Mile High Farms offers fall festival. Here is what each of those typically involves, and what to plan for:

Fall Festivals

A festival weekend is the farm operating at full capacity: every attraction open, food vendors on site, live music, and frequently craft or produce markets. It is the best day to visit if you want the complete experience, and the worst day to visit if you want a quiet field and a short queue.

Visiting Mile High Farms

Like almost every pumpkin patch in the country, Mile High Farms runs on a compressed seasonal schedule — typically open from mid-to-late September through the first days of November, with the exact opening and closing dates shifting slightly year to year based on weather and how the pumpkin crop comes in. Hours are also prone to change week to week during the season: many farms extend their hours on the two or three weekends around mid-October, when demand peaks, and cut back to weekend-only or reduced hours toward either end of the season.

Because of that variability, the hours listed on this page — sourced from Mile High Farms's public business listing — are a strong starting point but not a guarantee. A farm can close early for a private event, shut the field after heavy rain, or sell out of pumpkins before the posted closing time. If the trip to Bennett, CO is more than a few minutes for you, it is worth a quick call to confirm the farm is open and the field is accessible before you leave.

Payment practices are another area where it pays to check ahead. A meaningful share of pumpkin patches — especially smaller, family-run operations — are cash-only or limit card payments to the main farm store while wagon rides and field admission are collected in cash. Carrying some cash covers you even if Mile High Farms does take cards, and avoids an awkward trip back to the car at the gate.

If you are planning around young children, it is worth thinking about nap schedules and stamina rather than just the drive time — a two- or three-hour outing that includes a wagon ride, a walk through the field and a stop at a play area or animal pen tends to hold a toddler's attention better than a rushed visit squeezed between other errands. Groups with a wider age range often do best splitting up once on site, since older kids and adults can tackle a corn maze or longer walk while younger children stay closer to the main picking area.

Tips for a good visit

Go on a weekday morning if you can. It is consistently the quietest time at almost any pumpkin patch, with shorter waits for wagon rides and easier parking.
Wear shoes you don't mind getting muddy. Pumpkin fields are working farmland, not paved lots, and they get soft fast after rain.
Bring cash. Even farms that accept cards at the store sometimes run field admission and wagon rides as cash-only.
Call ahead after wet weather. Field access and hayrides are the first things a farm closes when the ground is saturated.
Check what's actually running that day. Corn mazes and haunted attractions in particular often open later in the season than the pumpkin patch itself, or run on a more limited schedule.
Pack layers. Fall mornings can start cold and warm up fast once the sun is out over an open field, especially if you're there for a few hours.

Getting to Mile High Farms

As with most pumpkin patches, parking is typically in a grass field rather than a paved lot, so allow a few extra minutes on busy weekends for staff or volunteers to direct traffic. If you are relying on a GPS app rather than the link on this page, search the farm name directly rather than just the street address — rural addresses sometimes route to the wrong gate or an adjacent property.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost to visit Mile High Farms?

Call ahead or check the farm's website to find out which applies here.

When is the best time to visit Mile High Farms?

Weekday mornings are consistently the quietest time to visit any pumpkin patch, including this one. The two weekends on either side of mid-October are typically the busiest of the season nationwide, so expect longer waits for wagon rides and parking if you go then. Late October usually means a thinner pumpkin selection but shorter lines.

Does Mile High Farms accept credit cards?
