Denton pumpkin patch questions
Is there a pumpkin patch in Denton, TX?
Yes: The Patch at Trinity United Methodist on Hobson Lane is getting its pumpkins now, with the next delivery on Sunday 4 October; it hasn’t posted its opening hours yet. The closest pumpkin patch with published dates is Cobbins Family Pumpkin Patch in Sanger, about 15 minutes north on I-35, open weekends from 26 September to 31 October.
What’s the best pumpkin patch near Denton?
For small children, Cobbins has a toddler village, a hay maze, bounce houses and a kids’ train. For a corn maze, Hall’s Pumpkin Farm in Grapevine is the classic. For a real farm with duck races and a farm train, Sunset Trail Farm in McKinney. And for a petting zoo on a budget, Fritz Park in Irving is $6.
Only on the right weekend: Cobbins welcomes dogs on its Bring Your Pup to the Patch weekend, 24–25 October. Hall’s and Fritz Park don’t allow pets. Our dog-friendly pumpkin patches page lists every Texas patch that welcomes dogs.
