Houston-Area Pumpkin Patches to Visit This Fall
HOUSTON’S WEATHER MAY NOT BE THE BEST indication of fall, but that doesn’t mean we can’t join in on some festive fun. The scorching summer months are slowly fading in exchange for cooler temps (by Texas standards, of course), festive orange and yellow decor, and seasonal gourds popping up in every store. Around this time of year, Houston is filled with fall activities to get you in the spirit, and pumpkin patches are one of them.
Here are Houston-area pumpkin patches to visit this fall, rain or shine.
