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.

Topaz Farm

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.

The Pumpkin Patch

Pumpkins have been the specialty at Sauvie Island’s Pumpkin Patch for more than four decades. Families can explore the barn filled with farm animals and tour the whole 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.
