Although it first started as a Christmas Tree farm, Dewberry Farm now hosts a Fall Festival offering a pumpkin patch, corn maze and more fall-themed activities in Brookshire.
“Families can enjoy a day of Texas-sized fun filled with pumpkins, great food, friendly farm animals and over 40 rides and attractions,” said Warren Lyng, vice president for Peerless Production Group. “It’s a great opportunity to [put] down cellphones and reconnect with a tilt of the hat to the old timey tradition of a day on the farm.”
What to expect
From Sept. 13 to Nov. 9, Lyng invites families to experience plenty of fall fun, including:
- A “Texas-sized” pumpkin patch and pumpkin painting
- Rides such as the Gold Rush Coaster, Apple Blaster Cannons and Barn Swinger
- A life-sized pumpkin house with photo-ops
- An 8-acre corn maze
- Several seasonal foods, such as turkey legs, brisket tacos, brick oven pizza and Halloween funnel cakes
The festival will also have firework shows every Friday starting at 9 p.m. and offer attendees to go on a “pumpkin stroll,” featuring hundreds of jack-o'-lanterns, Lyng said.
What else?
Additionally, the festival launched “BOOriffic Nights” Sept. 28, offering all typical daytime attractions and adding several Halloween-themed attractions, including:
- Three “creepy haunts”
- Life-sized lanterns of spooky stars
- Replica movie sets from "Beetlejuice," "The Shining," "IT" and "Stranger Things" with photo-ops
