Autumn 2019 has arrived at The Inn, Farmhouse and Brewing Co. at Turkey Hill in Bloomsburg – that means lots of fall fun at Pennsylvania pumpkin patches, corn mazes, and hayrides nearby!
Rohrbach’s Farm Market
Rohrbach’s Farm Market in nearby Catawissa, PA (less than 20 minutes south of Bloomsburg), celebrates the season with Pumpkin Fall Festivals on weekends beginning Saturday, September 21 until Friday, October 25, 2019. As their blog observes, “When summer changes to fall, it doesn’t take me long to ….get excited about all the colors and harvest of a new season! Pumpkins, gourds, mums, apples …”
At the Pumpkin Fall Festival, you can pick your own pumpkins and try your hand at the Apple Slingshot with a large ($6) or small ($3) basket of apples, then climb aboard their wagon for a free hayride to the corn maze. Admission to the maze is $8.00 (ages 12+), $5.00 (ages 4-11), ages 3 and under free. Beginning October 4, 2019, you can experience Flashlight Night in the Corn Maze in addition to the daytime schedule.
You’re invited to enjoy Hot Apple Dumplings and other the flavors of the season at their Food Stand throughout the Festival; in October, there’ll be Big Dan’s BBQ, hot sausages, French fries, pizza, and funnel cakes some days. Please note the corn maze and fall activities are only open during Fall Festival days. Visit Rohrbach’s calendar of events for detailed information about the specific times and activities on different dates.
