Snohomish has four pumpkin farms within a few miles of each other, and five more Washington patches are worth the drive too
Snohomish packs four full-size pumpkin farms into a few miles of farmland outside town, and that’s not even the most surprising find on this list. One farm ends its Saturdays with fireworks. Another lets your dog walk the corn maze with you.
Fall in Washington means more than larches and apple orchards — it means corn mazes, pumpkin cannons, and the annual argument over whose pie is actually worth the wait. Here are six stops worth the drive before the season wraps up at the end of October.

Snohomish’s pumpkin corridor: four farms, four different vibes
Bob’s Corn & Pumpkin Farm has been cutting the same cornfield into a maze since 2001, and this year’s layout covers 12 acres of stalks standing ten feet tall. A nighttime version opens Fridays and Saturdays starting October 3, with the full fall festival running daily through November 1.
A few minutes away, Stocker Farms runs its own 10-acre maze alongside a pumpkin cannon and a bubble barn. Craven Farm, just down the road, charges nothing to walk in at all — you only pay for pumpkins and whichever attractions you use at this 40-plus-year farm, including a corn maze themed Alice in Pumpkinland.
Swans Trail Farms rounds out the corridor with its own 12-acre maze, cut into the shape of Washington state, plus a nighttime lantern event called Great Harvest Glow running through the end of October. Pick a theme, pick a farm, and go.

Remlinger Farms, Carnation: the one with its own brewery
Remlinger’s Fall Harvest Festival runs weekends from September 26 through November 1, with Fridays added once October hits, and a single wristband covers more than 70 rides and attractions — a wooden coaster, a steam train, and a Ferris wheel among them. The corn maze here is a scavenger hunt sponsored by a regional magazine, with raffle prizes for anyone who finishes.
U-pick pumpkin fields are free to walk into; you only pay by the size of what you carry out. Once the kids are worn out, Remlinger Brewery pours beer on-site — a wristband covering the rides runs $33.95 online, a dollar more at the gate.
Carpinito Brothers, Kent: the low-key, kid-scale option
Carpinito Brothers keeps it simpler — more than 20 acres of u-pick pumpkins, wheelbarrows provided so nobody’s hauling a 15-pounder across a field by hand, and two corn mazes that get a new design every year. Farm animals greet you near the entrance, and roasted corn is sold on-site if the picking works up an appetite.
It’s open September 25 through October 31, and it’s one of the closer options if you’re coming from south Seattle or Tacoma.
Maris Farms, Buckley: bring the dog
Maris Farms is one of the few patches in the state where leashed dogs are welcome through both the pumpkin fields and the corn maze — this year’s maze is shaped like Bigfoot. Add zip lines, pig races, and trout fishing, and it stops being a quick pumpkin stop and turns into a half-day outing.
Stick around after dark for the evening light show, or brave the haunted forest if the kids are old enough. Maris runs October 10 through 30.
Fall City Farms: the closest thing to a quick trip
Fall City sits closer to Seattle than most of this list, and the patch keeps things simple: fresh mini doughnuts, hot cider, and farm animals to visit while you pick, including a little house built entirely out of pumpkins somewhere on the property.
It’s open Fridays and Saturdays from 10am to 6pm and Sundays 10am to 5pm, September 26 through October 31 — no reservation needed, just show up.

Knutson Farms, Sumner: fireworks on Saturdays
Knutson Farms runs its Patch fall festival October 3 through 31, with the usual lineup of corn mazes, a petting farm, bubble barns, and a pumpkin-bowling setup for kids who’d rather knock things over than pick them. What sets it apart: on October 10, 17, and 24, the farm stays open until 8pm for a fireworks show at 7:30.
Ticket packages vary by what you want to do, and kids two and under get in free — check current pricing before you head out.
Trip tips: grab a rental car to make farm-hopping easy, and lock in your hotel before fall-break weekends book up the good rooms.
Rules and fees change — always confirm current requirements before you go.
