Farmer John's Pumpkin Farm

Farmer John's Pumpkins is part of Daylight Farms, a family run farm which has been in business since 1947. We have been growing produce and flowers since its inception. Twenty years ago, Farmer John (yes, there is a real Farmer John) thought it would be good to grow pumpkins so that children and their families could experience a real pumpkin farm and actually see how and where they grew. Originally, Farmer John had school children plant the pumpkins in May and return to help harvest them in October as a fund raiser for their school. Now he is open to the public under the name of Farmer John's Pumpkin Farm so that more people can share in the farm experience. Farmer John also opens his farm to under-served youngsters by having special days when children with disabilities can come tour the farm and enjoy being outdoors on a working farm, experiencing the sights, smells, and pumpkins. Children make their own fun at Farmer Johns! Farmer John has about 60 varieties of pumpkins and Gourds in all sizes and shapes, even giant pumpkins! The farm also has huge cornstalks, a hay pyramid, an antique John Deere Tractor, an authentic Native American Ti Pi, flowers growing, picnic areas and a lot more fun!
