Beltane Ranch Pumpkin Patch: Fall Family Fun in Glen Ellen
Celebrate fall in Sonoma Wine Country at The Patch at Beltane Ranch in Glen Ellen! New for 2026, this family-friendly vineyard pumpkin patch offers a beautiful setting for pumpkin picking and fall fun for all ages. It's a fantastic new addition to the North Bay's fall festivities and definitely worth adding to your Wine Country itinerary this season!
The Patch is located just north of the charming town of Glen Ellen, off Sonoma Highway (Highway 12), in a spacious meadow surrounded by vineyards. Families can explore a hay bale pyramid and hay maze, visit farm animals, relax around sunset fire pit lounges, and enjoy food and drinks from on-site vendors. Of course, the main attraction is the expansive pumpkin patch, featuring a colorful variety of pumpkins and gourds in all shapes and sizes. Pumpkin prices range from $8 for smaller pumpkins to $40 for extra-large varieties.
Load your pumpkins into a classic Radio Flyer wagon and wheel them back to the big tent, where you'll find even more pumpkins and gourds for sale. It's also a great spot to relax at one of the tables, listen to music, and enjoy food and drinks from the on-site vendors. Sip a glass of Beltane Ranch wine, local craft beer or cider, or choose from soda, sparkling water, and juice. A rotating lineup of food trucks offers plenty of tasty options, too. It's a lovely place to unwind and soak up the Sonoma Wine Country atmosphere!
