All the Pumpkin Patch in Italy: my Definitive List
The term “Pumpkin Patch” refers to a cultural phenomenon that has gone viral, especially in recent years. Literally translated as “pumpkin garden,” it refers to places, often located in rural or agricultural areas, where farmers allow visitors to pick their own pumpkins directly from the fields.
In the period leading up to Halloween, this fun tradition was born in the United States: the Pumpkin Patch. Families visit these farms or vast fields to choose their favorite pumpkin to take home for carving, painting, or simply decorating their homes.
Although the tradition of carving and decorating pumpkins is more Anglo-Saxon than Italian, the Pumpkin Patch in Italy has grown significantly in number. Social media has played a major role, but more importantly, the widespread adoption of Halloween with all its fun traditions related to mystery, horror-themed costumes, and seasonal food—such as pumpkins!
These fascinating locations, originally designed as destinations for families, offer a unique autumn experience that goes far beyond simply picking pumpkins.
This article will explore both the origins of the Pumpkin Patch and how it has won over Italians of all ages. It will also provide a region-by-region list of places where you can actually pick and carve pumpkins in Italy.
