Features and Pricing for the Best Pumpkin Patches Near Chicago (with Map!)

There are so many pumpkin patches to visit in Chicagoland! They range from little patches where you head to the field and pick your own pumpkin to wash off afterwards, to big farm destinations with corn mazes, jumping pillows, and more. We’ve updated our list this year with more pumpkin patches for you to pick from. We’ve even included pumpkin patches that also offer apple picking so you can make it a combo trip!
