Remember back when you were a kid, opening the car door to the rush of that unmistakable scent of warm apple cider donuts? Because we sure do.
You guys, fall is the freaking best – and pumpkin patches and apple orchards essentially epitomize the season. Crisp air. Fresh fruit. Hayrides. Corn mazes. Warm hot chocolate. Petting zoos. Decorative gourds everywhere. We are here for all of it.
And if you're looking for your next autumn adventure, here are our favorite spots right over the bridge in South Jersey.
1. Johnson’s Corner Farm | Medford, NJ
Johnson’s Corner Farm has a wide variety of activities, from the essentials like hayrides with apple and pumpkin picking to live music and duck racing. Yes, duck racing. They are open seven days a week, but know that the corn maze is only open on weekends.
2. Duffield's Farm & Market | Sewell, NJ
PSA: their apple cider donuts are simply divine. On top of that, they offer apple picking every day for the first half of October and pumpkin picking all month long, except on Sundays. Plus, they also have pony rides for the kiddos.
3. Springdale Farm Market | Cherry Hill, NJ
Located right near the NJ Turnpike and Route 70, this farm is easily accessible from anywhere. And fun fact: did you know Springdale Farm is the last farm in Cherry Hill? They offer weekend hayrides and pumpkin picking throughout October.
4. R and J Farm | Galloway, NJ
Looking for some farm fun near the Jersey Shore? Then you must check out R and J Farm. About 20 minutes from Atlantic City, they have a hayride, corn maze, and a huge jumping pad. The farm is open every day from September 25 to October 30.
5. Hill Creek Farms | Mullica Hill, NJ
If you are a do-it-yourself type of person, this farm is for you. Here, you pick your own apples, pears, vegetables, pumpkins, and sunflowers. But wait, there's more! They have barrel train rides for the kids and host paint-and-sip events for adults. But just a heads up, they are only open on the weekends.
So which spot are you gonna visit first? Actually, it doesn’t matter, they are all worthy of your time.
