It will lead you by an apple orchard, a hay maze, corn rows, and a romantic-sounding "river park with fall leaves" before depositing you at the pumpkin patch and greenhouse. Their coffee shop and bakery will also be open, if you're hankering for pumpkin pie or apple cider, or you can bring your own picnic lunch. They also will be having a Haunted Hallow at 5 pm each Saturday and a special Halloween Carnival on October 30.

"Wheelbarrows and a walk" are the attraction of note again at Jubilee this year: When you get there, you'll grab a sanitized wheelbarrow and some clippers, then head to a pumpkin patch to fill it up with all the gourds you want. Before you check out, you can also pick up pumpkin butter, strawberry jam, and other farm goodies, grab a cup of hot apple cider, or munch on a salad. There are hayrides on Saturdays and Sundays as well. Admission is free, but capacity will be limited by the number of cars that can fit in their parking lot, so plan to get there early. They've also extended their hours to include weekdays, but food vendors will only be onsite on weekends.

Note that a ticket to the Pumpkin Experience includes access to their 40 acres of pumpkin patches, but there's also a free, 12-acre patch outside the admission area.
