Have you ever been, Rose Red? I can't say about this year, but my class has gone there in years past for field trips during October and enjoyed it.

I've been a few times. My daughter always enjoys it. She especially likes that she gets to take home a free little pumpkin  She also loves the hayride. |

This is another place we've been: Evergreen Farms Christmas Trees It's pricier, but half of the proceeds go to Dell Children's Medical Center. When we went, the kids thought hunting for pumpkins hidden in the Christmas trees was especially fun. |
