Kula Country Farms Pumpkin Patch

Kula Country Farms, Kula — Oct 1–31, 9:00 am–4:00 pm (last entry 3:45 pm)

Expect drinks and snacks on weekdays, hot food on weekends, limited picnic tables, and weekend parking in the pasture just past the stand on Kula Hwy—so wear closed-toe shoes and consider bringing a small cart for your haul.
