No dogs are allowed in Kernel Beach, on the Ropes Course or down the Slide. We also ask that you keep your distance from Biltamel's Barnyard and the Patch Hatch if the animals seem to be upset by your pet.

We recommend a couple of hours if you plan to enjoy all of the attractions! But you can always make a quick 5 minute stop on your drive by for our delicious donuts in the Big Gray Barn.

Is the maze included in the admission?

We do not have a petting zoo. But we do have Biltamel's Barnyard where you can feed our four-legged friends from outside the gates.

Can I pick a pumpkin directly from the field?

No, but we have tons of pumpkins on our lawn to choose from – and the best part is, you don’t have to trek through the mud to find your perfect pumpkin! More info

Do you sell food?

Yes! We sell a tasty array of homemade fall treats, including our delicious donuts that are made fresh everyday (and can be purchased in our Big Gray Barn without paying admission). 

At our Feed Trough inside the Fields of Fun we serve pizza, mac & cheese, giant pretzels, and hot dogs.

Please reach out to info@picknpatch.com for more information or to schedule your party.

Do you host field trips?

Yes. Please reach out to us at picknpatch@gmail.com for details. 

Do you have height, weight, or age restrictions for attractions?

Most of our attractions are for everyone to enjoy, however we do have a couple of safety restrictions:
Corn Maze: 16 and under must be accompanied by an adult
Lil' Pumpkin Pad: must be under 42"
Pumpkin Warrior Course: must be over 42"

Do I have to rent or bring my own wagon?

We have wagons you can use for free, based on availability. We do not allow our wagons to be taken in the maze.

How long does it take to go through the Corn Maze?

The maze is split into two phases. The first phase takes about 10-20 minutes depending on your walking speed and sense of direction. The second phase typically takes 25-35 minutes, again depending on your speed and skills. If you choose to play Maze-O-Poly, it could take you over an hour to find all of the game pieces.

How do I navigate the maze?

Just like you navigate life - through trial and error :). But, we do have some things to help you out along the way. We provide passports to help you decide which way to turn at some tricky points. We also have a virtual map that will let you know where you are in the maze.

What if I get seriously lost in the maze?

We will not let that happen. You can always call the main phone line: 585.526.6518 if you're panicking and we can send someone in to flush you out.

How far do you walk when completing the maze?

If you do the entire maze you could walk about 2 miles.

Can strollers make it in the maze?

It depends! The pathways are wide enough, but it is a field - it is rough terrain and depending on the weather, it can be wet and muddy. If you're okay with your stroller getting dirty, and possibly getting stuck in a couple of spots, then yes. Jogging strollers with big wheels are you best bet on the pathways. We do not allow our wagons to be taken in the maze.

Is the maze muddy?

It can be. If it's been raining a lot, then it's more likely to be muddy. You can always ask a staff member about the conditions before entering.

If it rains, what attractions will be open/closed?

Most of our attractions will remain open in the rain. In severe weather, the Super Slide, Barnyard Bouncer and Lil' Pumpkin Pad may have to be closed for safety reasons.

I bought a ticket online, but cannot come. Can I have a refund?

Tickets are non-refundable, but we are able to issue a credit for next season. Please reach out to us at: info@picknpatch.com and we are happy to help!

How can I utilize my old Pick'n Patch tickets with the new admission system?

If you still have orange Pick'n Patch tickets from past years please bring them with you and redeem them for shots on the Apple Blasters.

Can my child wear their halloween costume?

Yes! We love seeing Halloween costumes, however some of our attractions may be difficult to enjoy in costume, so please dress with care. Costumes must be family-friendly and may not be obstructive, offensive, objectionable or violent. Costumes may not contain any props our accessories that resemble or could easily be mistaken for an actual weapon. They may not contain sharp objects, pointed objects, or materials that may accidently strike another guest or damage the attractions. We request guests over the age of 16 refrain from wearing costume masks.

Do you accept Apple/Google payment?

No, but we do accept credit cards.

I'm hosting an event and am interested in pumpkins/decorations. Do you offer a discount on wholesale?

Please reach out to Drew at (585)-729-1478 for wholesale options and pricing.

Is there a way for my non-profit to ask for a donation of fall supplies?

The Pick'n Patch has been blessed with 30 years of growth and we strive to return some of that good fortune to our community. If you are seeking a raffle prize or similar donation, we may be able to provide tickets that would suit your needs. We have a limited amount of pumpkins and fall supplies are able to donate. Because of the high volume of inquiries we are unable to fulfill all requests but do our best to meet as many as possible. Please email info@picknpatch.com with your request. All requests must be submitted at least 15 days before the donation is needed.
