Pumpkinville & Corn Maze at Mitchellville
618 Center Ave. S. Mitchellville, IA 50169 / 515-967-0972
Pumpkinville is known for incorporating learning into all of our fun field trips. We charge $6.00 per child and $1.00 per adult. When calling to book a group, please have an idea of your numbers. You may firm up your numbers a couple days prior to your visit.
As part of our Fall field trips you will:
Take a tractor pulled hayrack ride, sitting on bales to the pumpkin patch to pick a pumpkin, each child must be able to carry their own pumpkin. Learn about pumpkins, squash, gourds and corn.
The Nathan's straw train is for all age groups. It is made up of large and small bales. It has an engine, several cars and a caboose. The train has become a popular place to hang out.
Will's Worm is designed for younger children to climb on.
Tug-A-Pumpkin and sack races are a fun way to challenge others, either as individuals or as teams.
Animalville has farm animals like pigs, goats, cows, ducks, chickens and more.
A snack and a beverage are part of the group package.
Allergies: Please let me know of any food allergies in your group. We believe all the children in your group should have the same treat. We will provide store bought treats for your group so that we can read labels and confirm safe treats for your children. For milk and peanut allergies, Oreo's or fruit snacks work well. For grain allergies we use fruit snacks. We are happy to take your suggestions and feedback on this.
Depending on your group and the time you have allowed, the weather, and the age of the participants, you may not be able to participate in all of these offered activities
Suggestions for group leaders:
Bring sacks to put the pumpkins in with the child's name in large letters or on a label on his/her sack. If you forget your sacks we will provide them for you with magic markers to write names on the sacks.
Reminder: This is a working farm, please dress appropriately for the terrain, season and weather. When it is hot, it is very hot in the maze. As the season turns cooler, it is always colder and windier on the farm than in town.
Parties:
Campfires are available but must be pre-scheduled. We get the fire going for you, provide additional wood, provide roasting sticks, soft lighting, picnic tables and chairs. You bring your own food. Electrical hook-ups can be arranged.
Parties and meetings are happening all the time at the farm for many age groups. Birthday parties, scout meetings, church outings, youth groups, business team building activities and more are part of what is offered. Call for rates.
Referral to local catering is available upon request.
