Pumpkin Patches in Los Angeles
Four pumpkin patches around Los Angeles, from petting zoos and train rides to a corn maze and a pass packed with games.
Pumpkin picking is a fun way to switch up your usual date, with plenty to do beyond choosing the perfect pumpkin. From petting zoos and festive rides to corn mazes and seasonal activities, these patches offer a playful way to spend a fall afternoon together. The 2026 pumpkin patch season has ended, but these spots are worth keeping in mind for next autumn.
Mr. Bones Pumpkin Patch
Mr. Bones Pumpkin Patch has been a Los Angeles Halloween favorite since 1987, moving from West Hollywood to Culver City more than a decade ago. With its spooky decorations, seasonal activities, and plenty of pumpkins to choose from, it's a playful spot for a festive fall date. Wear comfortable, closed-toe shoes with socks, as the ground is covered in wood chips. The patch is closed for the 2026 season but plans to return in 2027.
Mr. Jack O'Lanterns Pumpkin Patch
Mr. Jack O'Lanterns is a pumpkin patch in West LA. The Jack O' Pass bundles unlimited games and activities with a mini pumpkin and one decorating session. Picking one up gives the two of you an easy plan for the outing.
Shawn's Pumpkin Patch
Shawn's Pumpkin Patch is a long-running LA fall tradition, more than 46 years old. The attractions include a trackless train, giant slides and a petting zoo. The patch has moved before, so check its location before you go. The 2026 spot is on Bristol Parkway in Culver City.

Less swiping. More stories.
I've had a really positive experience with Known. The swipeless approach feels much more intentional than traditional dating apps, and it encourages genuine conversations instead of judging people in a split second. The profiles give you a better sense of who someone is, and the overall experience feels more thoughtful and less overwhelming. The app is easy to use, and it's refreshing to see a different approach to online dating that's focused on meaningful connections rather than endless scrolling. Definitely worth trying if you're looking for something more authentic.
I really like the look of the app. The interview could have been a little bit shorter, but I liked how deep and insightful it was. I’m excited to see what kind of matches they find for me, it definitely feels like a more fun and thoughtful way to find dates :)
i actually liked how they took care of picking the whole date place for me.
