Pumpkin picking nestled in historic Sharpsburg, Maryland.
Hello! We are Chris and Jessica Lantz, and along with our 4 young children, we’ve planted lots of pumpkins and lots of big dreams. We started in 2018 with a roadside stand on the honor system, and with the support of our community our little pumpkin patch has grown to what it is today. It is our heart that you and your family find a warm inviting place to enjoy your fall weekends with your loved ones; we hope you can get away from the hustle and bustle and come, relax, and stay a while. Our goal is to provide a laid-back atmosphere where you can have some simple family fun on the farm!
