October Weekend Activities in Clackamas County: Pumpkin Patches, Fall Festivals, and Farm Visits

October special edition | Published October 5, 2026

October is a good excuse to leave a little room in your weekend schedule. Pick a pumpkin, take a hayride, let the kids work their way through a corn maze, and come home with cider donuts and muddy shoes.

One of the things I appreciate about living around Oregon City and Beavercreek is having farms and small communities close enough for an easy afternoon outing. You don’t need a big trip to enjoy fall here.

If you’re looking for October activities in Clackamas County, these local pumpkin patches and community festivals are a good place to start. I’ve also included a couple of nearby farm options around Tualatin and Aurora.

Dates and details were checked against organizer websites on October 5, 2026. Check the linked pages before heading out for weather changes, ticket availability, and activity updates.

Pumpkin Patches and Farm Days

Liepold Farms Fall Festival in Boring

When: Daily through October 31, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., weather permitting.
Where: 14050 SE Richey Road, Boring.

Liepold combines pumpkin picking with a corn maze, hayrides, scavenger hunts, and an apple slingshot. This year’s maze adventure centers on finding a stolen golden pumpkin.

General admission is $5 and excludes the maze, hayride, and apple slingshot. The Experience Pass is $20 for adults and $15 for children ages 3–13. Children under 3 are free with a paying adult. Pumpkins and some activities cost extra.

Allow about two hours for the full experience and arrive by 3 p.m. Weekend visitors can also look for apple cider and pumpkin donuts, available from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. while supplies last.

Check Liepold’s festival details and tickets.

Bushue’s Family Farm in Boring

When: Thursday through Sunday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., through October 25.
Where: Boring. Use the farm’s directions when planning your visit.

Bushue’s is worth considering if you want to choose activities individually. Farm entry is free, with paid rides and play activities available separately.

There’s a free mini corn maze, farm animals to observe, and a play area with activities especially geared toward children under 8. You can choose a pre-picked pumpkin or purchase a hayride out to the field to pick one from the vine.

The farm also lists apple cider donuts and seasonal treats. Try to arrive by 3 p.m. so you have time to explore.

Put this one earlier on your calendar. Its season ends October 25, and it is closed on Halloween.

Check Bushue’s hours, activities, and pricing.

Frog Pond Farm in Wilsonville

When: September 18 through November 1. Weekends, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.; weekdays, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Where: 2983 SW Advance Road, Wilsonville.

If the animals are the main attraction for your family, start here. Frog Pond has llamas in the pumpkin patch on weekends, a llama obstacle course, a corn maze, and a Bounce Park.

General admission is $16 per person ages 2 and older. The All-In Wristband is $25 and includes additional attractions. Tickets are sold in person, and a regular visit does not require a reservation.

Leashed, well-behaved dogs are welcome on the farm, but they cannot enter the pumpkin patch because of the free-roaming llamas.

Check Frog Pond’s pumpkin patch details.

Two Nearby Farm Options

Lee Farms Fall Festival near Tualatin

When: Through October 31. Monday through Saturday, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.; Sunday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Lee Farms offers the familiar fall combination of a pumpkin patch, corn maze, hayride, bakery treats, and seasonal decorations. It’s another option if you’re planning an outing around the Tualatin area.

Check the ticket page to compare the current admission options before buying. Regular farm entry ends one hour before closing, and activities end 30 minutes before closing.

Halloween has shorter hours: October 31, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., with last entry at 3 p.m.

Check Lee Farms’ schedule and tickets.

Fir Point Farms Harvest Festival near Aurora

When: September 26 through October 31, Wednesday through Sunday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Where: 14601 Arndt Road, Aurora.

Fir Point is another nearby harvest festival option for a weekend outing around the Canby and Aurora area.

The farm’s official page lists its 2026 season and hours, along with separate weekday activity information. Check the current activity offerings and costs directly with the farm when planning your day.

October Fall Festivals to Put on Your Calendar

Fall Fest in the Forest in West Linn

Saturday, October 17, 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Mary S. Young Park, 19900 Willamette Drive, West Linn.

West Linn’s Fall Fest in the Forest offers a different kind of fall outing: costumes, trick-or-treat stations along the trails, live music, carnival-style games, and a skeleton scavenger hunt.

Mini pumpkin decorating and harvest crafts are free while supplies last. Food and drinks are available for purchase.

There’s also a dog costume contest at 12:15 p.m., with registration beginning at 11 a.m. If your dog has a better Halloween outfit than you do, this might be their day.

See West Linn’s event schedule.

Wilsonville Fall Harvest Festival

Saturday, October 24, 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Stein-Boozier Barn at Murase Plaza, 8300 SW Memorial Drive, Wilsonville.

Wilsonville’s free public festival includes music, pumpkins, horse-and-carriage rides, craft vendors, and face painting. Costumes are encouraged.

The city specifically notes that parking is extremely limited. Plan to use one of the nearby parking locations shown on its event map, including the library, community center, Lower Memorial Park, or City Hall.

This is a good date to circle if you want a community fall event with free admission.

See Wilsonville’s festival details and parking information.

Turn October Into a Local Farm Tour

The Mt. Hood Territory Harvest Trail runs September 24 through October 31, 2026.

Pick up a free passport at a participating farm, then complete at least five listed activities across two or more farms. Participating locations include Dolan Creek Farm, Bushue’s Family Farm, Yesteryear Farms, Fiala Farms, Liepold Farms, Frog Pond Farm, Queen Orchard, and Historic Kirchem Farm.

Completed passports can be redeemed for Bigfoot socks at designated locations, with prizes limited to the first 150 redemptions. Each redeemed passport also helps provide a Thanksgiving meal to a local family through the Sandy Community Action Center.

The passport is free. Farm admission and individual activities may still have a cost.

I like this idea because it gives you a reason to explore more than one place. Spread the visits over a few weekends and see a little more of the county along the way.

A Few Ways to Make the Day Easier

Wear shoes you’re comfortable getting muddy, bring layers, and keep a bag or box in the car for pumpkins and dirty boots.

Check what each ticket includes. Admission, rides, food, and pumpkins may be separate purchases. If you’re bringing a dog, read the farm’s policy first.

For the October 31 weekend, pay particular attention to closing dates. Bushue’s will already be closed for the season, and Lee Farms closes earlier on Halloween.

Most of all, leave yourself time to enjoy it. A pumpkin patch visit doesn’t need to become a checklist of every attraction.
