GIVEAWAY- Win A Family Four Pack!

September 10, 2024

It's easy to see why Sinkland Farms Pumpkin Festival has been voted #1 in the Commonwealth of Virginia year-after-year by Virginia Tourism.

Sinkland Farms 33rd Annual Pumpkin Festival opens September 27th and runs through November 3rd.  Wine lovers can get a first glimpse on September 21st and 22nd, at Sinkland's 2nd Annual Wine Festival. Visiting the farm's picture-perfect, rolling fields is an annual family tradition for many Southwest Virginia families. The festival offers fun and activities for kids of all ages, including the grown up ones!  Macaroni KID Roanoke and NRV are excited to offer a GIVEWAY to 2 families.

Venture on a hayride or enjoy a relaxing nature stroll to 10 acres of pumpkin patch, meander through the corn maze, watch the pigs race, and breathe in the fresh country air while gazing upon five acres of sunflowers at the foot of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Children may enjoy our Kidz-Zone which includes a zip-line, giant slides and jumping pad, swings, ropes course, spider climber, and so much more! Skip over to see farm-ily, friendly animals, horseback trails & pony rides, walking trails, and The Tuscan Pond. Adult beverages are served on the Tuscan Terrace. Meet at The Cottage Shoppe for ice cream, kettle corn, jams, and goodies, live music, local artisans & food vendors to delight!

Setting itself apart from other pumpkin patches, Sinkland Farms makes sure to gear farm fun to adults of all ages. Tastings of Virginia wines and craft beer from the farm are available each day, along with a packed schedule of live music. You can also enjoy live music Saturdays and Sundays from 1 - 4 PM. This music is included with the festival and is seperate from our Friday Fall Concert Series. Chainsaw carving, corn shelling, and the blacksmith exhibitions draw big crowds. Visitors can also enjoy the multitude of arts and crafts vendors. Featured local artists visit every weekend to display and demonstrate their craft. All this along with so many opportunities for family photographs on the picturesque farm.

The Pumpkin Patch and 5-acre Corn Maze are in the running for USA Today's Best in the Nation!
