We’re beyond ready for fall and all things pumpkin spice and everything nice! Also ready for the season is this gorgeous Redlands farm that’s home to a golden sea of sunflowers, thrilling hay rides, outdoor games, famous milkshakes and barbecue. Known to bring “a piece of the country to Miami,” the Berry Farm is welcoming back autumn lovers this September 17 for its annual Harvest Festival and they have so much in store!
It’s the fifth year for the recurring festival and it features everything you’ll need for an ideal fall day: the perfect pumpkin house, photo ops, tasty fall treats, hay rides and, of course, tons of pumpkin picking!
In addition to not one, but TWO pumpkin picking areas, they’ll also have a 4-acre corn maze (shaped like an ice cream cone), gem mining adventures, interactions with friendly Scottish Highland cows, an obstacle course, fully-shaded wooden playground area and kangaroo bounce floor and live music.
After working up an appetite, enjoy festival foods and drinks like lip-smacking BBQ and burgers to refreshing açaí bowls.
And if you’re looking for the perfect sunny shot to share with your social media followers, their blooming sunflower field will be camera-ready, and you’ll be able to bring home your pick of the lot of sunflowers to commemorate a day at the farm.
Also in store for October are their Nightmare in the Redland haunted hay ride and corn maze event (“recommended for victims 13 years and older,” the farm says), and a Tricks & Treats Halloween Extravaganza for younger guests to collect candy thought the farm and field. While costumes are encouraged, no masks are allowed.
“We’ve worked hard in the off-season to prepare for this year’s Harvest Festival, and we look forward to welcoming everyone back to Miami’s Countryside,” said owner Karl Wiegandt in a news release. “With a mix of beloved traditions and exciting new additions, there’s something for everyone at The Berry Farm.”
The Berry Farm Annual Harvest Festival will run September 17 to November 10. For more information and tickets, visit their website.
