Where to Find Pumpkins and Apples in Oz

Fall is here, and that means it's time to get your pumpkins and apples!  Luckily, finding a humble pumpkin patch, or a sweet-smelling orchard in Oz is not too difficult a task.

One of the best ways is to let the farmers come to you at one of the area's Farmers Markets.  In Oz, there's one for almost every day of the week, and you're sure to find what you're looking for!

Of course, if you're looking for a farm to visit, we have those, too:

Cedar Creek Farm has just about every pumpkin hunting experience you could hope for: a kid's straw bale, a corn maze, and much more fall fun, close to home. Add in no admission fees and FREE Hay Wagon Rides, and they are THE place for affordable family fun.  Cedar Creek Farm is located at 649 Hwy. 60 in Cedarburg.

Appleland in Fredonia has apples, of course, and a stunning variety of them, at that, but they also have pumpkins to pick or already picked, and an assortment of jams, bakery, caramel apples, cider, and more in their market store.  Free wagon rides on the weekends.  Appleland is located at 4177 Highway 57 in Fredonia.

Buechler Farms is one of the newest in Oz to offer a family fall experience.  A petting zoo, corn maze, hayrides, and kiddie train are available, as well as pumpkins, gourds, and cider.  The farm is located at 587 South Royal Ave in Belgium.

Barthel's Fruit Farm in Mequon and Nieman's Orchards in Cedarburg are two of the most favorite places to go apple picking in Oz.  Both farms offer pumpkins, pears, and a variety of other treats, as well.  Barthel's is located at 
12246 N Farmdale Rd. in Mequon, while Nieman's is located at 9932 Pioneer Rd. in Cedarburg.

If you're willing to venture a bit out of Oz, there are a few places worth the trip:

Spieker's Pumpkin Farm in Random Lake features a massive corn maze, hay rides, and an incredible variety of pumpkins and gourds, as well as a petting zoo, and more.  Find it at N1181 Hwy. 57 in Random Lake.

Meadowbrook Pumpkin Farm and Market in West Bend has quite the exotic petting zoo, and a haunted corn field, a totally unstaged and hair-raising adventure through 8 plus creepy houses and 3/4 miles of narrow trails in tall, dense corn, on narrow confined trails.  Not exactly family fun with young children, but possibly a great outing with your teenagers or adult friends.  Find Meadowbrook at  2970 Mile View Road in West Bend.

​Happy picking!!
