With crisp, blue skies overhead, yellow cottonwood leaves ticking in high branches and great orange gourds waiting ripe in the fields, autumn is the time for a pilgrimage to our 120-acre pumpkin patch. And at Rock Creek Farm, you’ll enjoy the authentic, old-fashioned tradition of choosing your favorite pumpkin and harvesting it straight from the vine — we’ll even provide the shears! Our genuine farm experience offers more family fun than wandering through a lot full of pre-cut pumpkins.
And you wouldn’t want that perfect pumpkin to be lonely on the porch, would you? Never fear: We’ve got cornstalks, crisp straw bales, goofy gourds and bright Indian corn to keep it company.
How to find the perfect pumpkin at Rock Creek Farms:
- Drive into the farm at 2005 South 112th St. in Broomfield.
- Stop by to pick up a tool to harvest your pumpkin.
- Just past the farm buildings, bear left and follow the signs to the pumpkin patch.
- Enter any field marked “open.”
- Please stay on designated driving tracks.
- Wander freely with your family until you find that just-right pumpkin to make a Jack O’Lantern, bake a pie or decorate your cornucopia.
- Be sure to try navigating any of our fun, challenging corn mazes and visit the animals — horses, cattle, sheep, pigs and more.
- Don’t forget to stop by and enjoy some of our pumpkin bread and pick up corn stalks, gourds, colorful Indian corn and more for your upcoming autumn celebrations.

Colonists sliced off the pumpkin tops, removed the seeds and filled the insides with milk, spices and honey. This was baked in hot ashes and is the origin of the pumpkin pie.
