When those temperatures dip below 80, Texas mommas start envisioning fall photo ops in the pumpkin patches. Fall just doesn’t get any cuter than the delight of kids in a pumpkin patch. I’ve rounded up a list of Central Texas Pumpkin Patches close enough to Austin for a day trip that will give you and your kiddos bushels of fun. Not only will you get those photo ops you crave, but you can pick your pumpkins and participate in many fall themed activities. Click on any of the farm names for details on planning your visit. Scroll all the way down for links to the Fall recipes on the blog, including my Scrumptious Pumpkin Muffins and the BEST Apple Crumble.
