There’s something instantly joyful about watching Goats and Chickens while picking pumpkins off the vine across a sunny farmyard. Especially when it’s part of a Clovis farm activities lineup that turns a simple visit into one of the most memorable Central Valley farm events of the season.
Sweet Thistle Farms and Rocky Oaks Goat Creamery invites families to this year's Pumpkin Patch Starting October 3rd, from 10 am to 4 pm at the farm located at 5365 Mendocino, Clovis, CA. This playful, family-friendly Pumpkin Patch is designed for kids, parents, and anyone who loves animals, fresh air, and time spent together.
