Pumpkin patches in Maine.
📅 In season: September – October · pie pumpkins through November
A pumpkin from a real patch comes with a thick stem, field-cured skin, and the kind of weight that makes the porch display feel earned. The farms below grow their own pumpkins in Maine — carvers, pie pumpkins, specialty heirlooms, and the warty gourds the kids insist on.
Pumpkins arrive with the first cool nights in mid-September and run through Halloween, with pie pumpkins and winter squash carrying the table to Thanksgiving.

Know before you buy.
-
For carving, pick a pumpkin with a sturdy stem and a flat bottom; a soft spot anywhere means it won’t last the week.
-
For pie, skip the carving giants — small sugar/pie pumpkins have denser, sweeter flesh.
-
Field-cured pumpkins kept dry, cool, and off concrete can last two months or more.
Pumpkin patches: questions, answered.
When do pumpkin patches open in Maine?
Most Maine farms put pumpkins out from mid-September through Halloween. Going (or ordering) in late September gets the best selection; the week before Halloween gets the picked-over field.
What’s the difference between a carving pumpkin and a pie pumpkin?
Carving varieties are bred big with thin walls and stringy flesh — fine for jack-o’-lanterns, bland for baking. Pie (sugar) pumpkins are small with dense, sweet flesh. Buy both; they’re different tools.
How long will a pumpkin last outside?
Uncarved and dry, a month or more on a cool porch. Carved, expect about a week — longer in cold snaps, less in warm rain.
