There are plenty of places where you can get pumpkins in Ottawa so no matter what part of the city you live in, you will be able to find some pumpkins near you!
Some farms allow you to pick your own but most places have them in an area for you to choose from. Some have all sizes of pumpkins and other great fall decorations too including hay and various gourds. There are also places where you can take the family on a tractor ride!
You can bring the whole family out to find some pumpkins for Halloween. What a wonderful way to spend a cool, autumn afternoon and a great photo opportunity too! We always bring our kids out to help us choose the pumpkins and also so we can get some great fall photos with them by the pumpkins.
Here are some of the local Ottawa Pumpkin Patches. Please call in advance to check opening times and also to make sure they haven’t closed down (sometimes places close down without us knowing):
