Before you drive out

Every date, price and opening hour here came from the venue itself and was current when we built this guide in October 2026. Fall schedules move — a patch sells out of pumpkins, a farm adds a night, weather closes a corn maze. Check with the place directly before you make a special trip, especially late in the month.

Spotted something out of date, or know a patch we missed? Tell us at[email protected] and we will fix it.

Why a real estate team made a pumpkin map

Because we live here too. The Move Live Love TX Team™ is Peter and Vicky Royster — we grew up in Clear Lake, we work from Galveston to Conroe, and we have driven most of these roads with our own family in the car. Knowing the area is not a marketing line for us; it is the job.

If a move is somewhere on your horizon, we would love to help. If not, go get a pumpkin.

While you are out picking pumpkins: our Great Pumpkin Contest is open to kids 4–12, with prizes in every age group. Entries close October 28.
