Fall is one of the best times to get outside and explore Rhode Island with the family. From picking the perfect pumpkin to riding a hay wagon through the fields, local farms offer plenty of ways to enjoy the season.
If you're looking for pumpkin patches in Rhode Island, here are several places worth adding to your fall calendar.
The farm's combination of picking, bakery treats, and cider makes it easy to turn a pumpkin trip into a full afternoon outing.
Confreda's Fall Fest is another option for families looking for a full fall experience. Activities include pumpkin picking, hayrides, carnival rides, and train rides, with the event running on weekends during the fall season.
Cucumber Hill Farm offers one of the more activity-packed fall experiences in Rhode Island. Families can pick pumpkins, take hayrides, explore a corn maze, and enjoy other seasonal activities. Its 2026 season is scheduled for September 19 through October 25.
Planning a fall day on Aquidneck Island? Escobar Farm in Portsmouth offers pumpkin picking, hayrides, and an eight-acre corn maze. Current 2026 listings show the season running into November, although visitors should confirm details before going because the farm's website information is currently limited.
For families looking for something a little more whimsical, Frerichs Farm offers seasonal activities including its Charlie Brown Pumpkin Patch, pumpkin painting, children's activities, and the Magic Pumpkin Coach.
Sweet Berry Farm is a great option if you're already spending a fall day around Newport. The Middletown farm sits on 100 acres and offers seasonal pick-your-own experiences along with a farm café.
A pumpkin-picking trip doesn't have to end when you find your pumpkin. Make a full fall day out of it by visiting a nearby farm stand, grabbing cider or cider donuts, exploring a local downtown, or taking a scenic drive to see the changing leaves.
Schedules, admission prices, pumpkin availability, and activities can change throughout the season, so check directly with each farm before visiting.
If you're thinking about moving to Rhode Island, exploring local farms and seasonal traditions is also a fun way to get to know the communities you're considering. The Renee Moussally Team can help you explore neighborhoods and homes throughout Rhode Island.
