35 pumpkin patches
A patch, not a pumpkin. A place is here because its own website says it is running a pumpkin patch — picking, u-pick, a patch by name — or because it is a farm whose fall calendar says pumpkins. Carving demonstrations, a zoo’s pumpkin smash and a craft session making paper pumpkins are all somewhere else, however the word appears in them.
