I Finally Visited This Loveland Pumpkin Patch — And It Was So Worth the Wait

I'm not ashamed to admit that I'm a chronic procrastinator...

I've been putting off admitting that for a while.

Earlier this week, I FINALLY went to a pumpkin patch to find something to carve for Halloween, and I might have discovered my new favorite fall spot in Northern Colorado.

Finding the Perfect Pumpkin Patch in Northern Colorado

For the entire month of October I've been putting off making my yearly trip to a pumpkin patch.

Part of it has to do with not wanting to go on the weekend when it's super crowded. So, I searched around to find places open during the week with hours that worked with my schedule.

Why I Chose Osborn Farm in Loveland

I found Osborn Farm in Loveland which has been open from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM during October.

A Hidden Fall Gem With a Long Colorado History

Established in 1861, Osborn is the oldest continuously occupied farm in Colorado.

At the end of a long gravel road, you'll find this cozy family farm that is just a perfect Autumn spot.

What Makes Osborn Farm Worth the Trip

I was pleasantly surprised by just how many good-looking pumpkins they still had at the farm. Honestly, I worried that as soon as I set foot at the patch, someone would snatch up the last good one.

The staff at Osborn Farm clearly cared enough to keep the patch well stocked, which won them some points for me.

Great Pumpkins, Mountain Views, and Fair Prices

When you check out this farm, you have to walk around and see the gorgeous views from the dock on their property.

Water + mountains = perfection (for me at least).

Once it came time to pay up for the pumpkins, I ended up with a pretty fair price. No issues with that at all!

Honestly, I would've paid more just to support a centennial farm like this one!
