After plucking your future jack-o-lanterns from the fields, select a few more to load into the pumpkin cannon, which blasts the gourds up to 400 feet (122 m).

Bella Organic
Northwest of downtown Portland, Sauvie Island’s Bella Organic is packed with fall fun, including free hayrides to a 7-acre (3 hectares) corn maze that’s haunted by ghoulish figures every Friday and Saturday of October. This picturesque patch also offers an organic food market featuring Bella Organic wines and Hopworks brews. Snag a sugary Voodoo Doughnut at the market to complete the Stumptown experience.
The Pumpkin Patch
Pumpkins have been the specialty at Sauvie Island’s Pumpkin Patch for more than four decades. Families can explore the animal barn and take a tour of the farm on the famous cow train before stopping off to buy homemade pickles, jams and other tasty homemade gifts at the farm-fresh market. Hop on the hayride to pick pumpkins straight from the soil any day in September and October.
Topaz Farm
Pumpkin season at Topaz Farm on Sauvie Island offers up bountiful autumn delights all October long. Patrons stay toasty and sated while foraging for pumpkins with caramel apples, wood-fired pizza and steaming cups of cider. Don’t miss the farm’s fabulous corn maze, which transforms on weekends into a circus-like show with cabaret performers, fire dancers and a live band.
Fazio Farms
Conveniently pre-picked Sauvie Island pumpkins are available from late September through Oct. 31 at Fazio Farms, a 6.5-acre (2.6 hectares) corn maze in Northeast Portland. Kiddos can make their way through Hayland, where bales form an easily navigable labyrinth, before taking a turn on the bouncy slide and trying their luck at the pumpkin ring toss.
