If you’re in the Grand Junction area looking for fun ways to celebrate fall this season, then you’ve definitely come to the right place. Our team here at Carville’s Auto Mart put together a list of pumpkin patches within an hour drive for everyone to take advantage of. Be sure to stay tuned to our blog for more information on local events and activities throughout the year.
Studt’s Pumpkin Patch & Corn Maze
Location: 21 ½ Road in Grand Junction
We’re going to start with this one because it is located right here in Grand Junction! Studt’s Pumpkin Patch and Corn Maze is easily one of the most popular go-to spots for the perfect Autumn day. Bring the entire family along to pick out your own pumpkins and maneuver your way through three different corn mazes. There are tons of other activities as well including a petting zoo, a giant slide, horse drawn hay rides and even a zip line. More information regarding hours and admission is available here.
Moon Farm
1360 18 ½ Road in Fruita
About 20 minutes east of Grand Junction, drivers will find Moon Farm in Fruita, CO. Picking out your own pumpkins is a given, but this place offers much more than that. Guests will also be welcome to make their way through a haunted straw maze as well as a themed corn maze. There is a petting zoo as well as a plethora of other activities to enjoy. New this year is a haunted castle and a creepy clown house for those looking for a scare. Details and contact information is available here.
New Castle Gardens
6501 County Road 214 in New Castle
Although this location is a little over an hour away, we decided to include it because it’s affordable, fun and totally worth the trip. Saturdays will include live music, games, food vendors and artists, so it’s safe to say it’s much more than just a pumpkin patch. However, guests can still enjoy unique fall-related activities such as pumpkin ball toss, pumpkin basketball and pumpkin bowling. For more information, guests can visit the website here.

Our inventory is diverse, but we focus on one thing – quality vehicles. Feel free to contact us for more information, or schedule a test drive online today!
