Hobe Sound Farms starts its 2026 pumpkin season on October 3. Pumpkin Towne opens its Stuart lot on October 7. Choose the farm for a longer outing with separately priced activities, or the Stuart lot for pumpkin shopping.

Operator details below were checked October 3, 2026. A patch opening time is not necessarily the activity start time. Recheck the linked operator pages for weather changes, ticket terms and remaining pumpkin stock.

Quick list

Choose by the outing you want

  • Hobe Sound Farms: farm activities start later than the patch opens.
  • Pumpkin Towne: pumpkin shopping; no food, hayrides or corn maze.
  • The Hobe Sound Farms $18 advance bundle expired October 2; it is not a current offer.

Pumpkin Towne is a shopping stop

The Stuart lot is beside Monster Express Car Wash, in front of Prince of Peace Lutheran Church. Pumpkin Towne describes a pumpkin lot rather than a farm festival: it does not provide food, hayrides or a corn maze. Its Stuart contact number is 772-203-2154.

If you want dinner afterward, plan it separately. A short pumpkin-shopping stop is easier to fit around other activities than an outing that depends on several timed attractions.

Hobe Sound Farms: check activity hours separately

The Fall on the Farm page lists patch hours from 9 a.m. and activities from noon, with Friday and Sunday extensions. Some weekend entries in the calendar end at 2 p.m., while the overview lists later hours. Confirm your particular day with the operator before driving; the pages do not give a fully consistent hours answer.

The farm advertised an $18 advance bundle with a deadline of October 2 at midnight. That deadline has passed. Compare the live ticket page with the individual activity prices before paying; free entry does not include every activity.

Build a manageable family outing

Decide whether the priority is buying a pumpkin, taking a casual family picture or paying for farm activities. Bring water and allow room in the car for purchases. Confirm the operator’s weather and refund terms before buying tickets.

For a longer day, choose one nearby stop from the Treasure Coast family activities guide. Other church and nursery patches may announce dates later; an old listing is not confirmation of a 2026 opening.
