If you need to take a break from trick or treating, make a pit stop at our Pumpkin Fun Area! With the help of Knollbrook Farm, this area is free for all to enjoy throughout the entire event! You can have some fun playing games like pumpkin tic tac toe or even try to toss a ring onto a pumpkin!

Knollbrook Farm is located in Goshen, IN and has lots of fun fall activites for everyone! You can find your way through their 12-acre corn maize, slide down their 50 ft slide, try your hand at their pumpkin slingshot, or even pick your perfect pumpkin!
