NORTH BAY
Petaluma Pumpkin Patch & Amazing Corn Maze
The Petaluma Pumpkin Patch offers 5 acres of locally and sustainably grown pumpkins grown by 4th generation Petaluma Farmer Jim Groverman. To find your perfect pumpkin you have the option to wander the fields or choose one that is on display. They offer an incredibly wide assortment of shapes and sizes so you are sure to find the perfect pumpkin for you.
The Amazing Corn Maze, designed each year by Farmer Jim, is 174 rows which is the equivalent of 13.2 miles and spans across 4 acres!
