Historic Richmond Town's Decker Farm

$12 entry for adults and $7 entry for children. Cash or credit upon entry or on their website. Lots more signage this year with warnings and expected behaviors. This farm is small enough for children with sensory needs to be manageable. The parking wasn't too bad when we arrived at 2:30PM, and the staff were all nice; at least whoever we encountered. My 5 y.o. loved the free hay ride; we did it about 6 times! The pumpkin patch is just pumpkins placed on hay in the open field, but for little kids, this is fine. There's a few photo opts if you're inclined, or can get your kid(s) to cooperate. There was also a free kiddie corn maze and pumpkin chucking (3 pieces of broken pumpkin per person) which was fun and cute. The airbrush tattoo station was a big hit with my son - $9 for a Captain America shield that lasts up to 4 days - was well worth it. The toys offered are highly priced and absolutely NOT worth it.

WARNING: DON’T GO UNLESS YOU LIKE WASTING MONEY ON BS! First and LAST time me and my family will be going to Decker Farm! There was an admission fee to get inside, which I was aware of because it says the admission or “ticket prices” on their website, even though they didn’t have actual tickets; they just stamp your hand after you pay. So we get stamped to go inside the farm, but when we get in there was literally NOTHING as advertised for the kids to do and it was a HUGE disappointment. Both of my kids are on the spectrum for autism and were looking forward to a fun time on the farm, but instead they got nothing but disappointment. They charge you to basically go on the property, but EVERYTHING else inside cost money and their prices are far from cheap. They advertised pumpkin painting, hayride, pumpkin chucking, and more fun activities for the kids, but you have to pay for everything (except the hayride, but that was so wack that it wasn’t even worth going)! We were so unhappy with our experience there that we didn’t even do their hayride because it was pointless. I was under the impression that certain things or activities would have been included in the admission fee, but they

I’m only rating Decker Farm for their fall festival, since we have not visited for any other occasion. First thing that is wrong with this festival, You have to pay to get in. What does that get you? It gets you the privilege of paying WAY too much for disgusting, burnt Arepas, stale donuts & popcorn. You get to stand in line for 30min to ride on a 10min hayride that does a small loop. You also get to pick a pumpkin that they probably bought at Trader Joe’s for $5 and put in their field and then charge you $30 for! The only free thing other than the hayride is a little hay maze for kids under 6, and I mean little. The traffic to get there is crazy and there’s practically no parking. The only reason I gave 2 stars instead of 1 was because there are a few ok photo opps and the pumpkin launcher, which also cost extra, was a little fun.

Such a great place. We go every year and now my kid 17 year old and still our yearly traditional pumpkin picking place. Great activities for the kiddos. Simple foods, sit eat and relax. Adult admission. Free parking.

Loved the vibe there, especially when more kids arrived my daughter had a blast chasing bubbles with other kids. I wish they had more activities, like maybe a petting zoo and the kiddy ride, they usually do, but I realize, we are in 2020 and the Coronavirus struck, so I am thankful for this experience too.
