What you get for the price

Included with admission

Pumpkin patchTractor and hayridesCarouselPlaygroundFarm animalsHomemade ice creamFried piesBoiled peanutsBirthday parties

Charged per car for parking rather than per person: reported at $4 by one guide and $5 per car by two others, cash only. Pumpkins, food and rides are paid separately. Private bookings $150 for a 90-minute tent slot including mini pumpkins for up to 10 children and a hayride; photography sessions $50 per hour.

Rough cost for a family of four: about $16.00 in admission alone at the posted starting rate, before pumpkins, food, parking or any add-on listed above. Most families end up well north of that once they are through the gate.

Free to walk in. Your spend here is whatever you choose — pumpkins, food, and any paid activities. That makes it a low-risk stop if you are not sure how long the kids will last.

Our take

The pricing model is what made this place worth knowing about. A fee charged per car rather than per person — reported at $4 by one Atlanta guide and $5 by two others, cash only — is close to unique among fall farms, and it turns a family outing into pocket change. Everything else, the pumpkins and the ice cream and the fried pies and the boiled peanuts, you buy or you do not.

The complication is that we cannot tell you whether any of that still applies. When we read berrypatchfarms.co in August 2026 it said the farm was closed for the season and that exciting new things were coming for 2026, and directed visitors to Facebook. No dates. No hours. No prices. Everything above describes last year, and the sources describing last year do not even agree on whether the parking fee was four dollars or five.

That phrasing on the website deserves a moment of honesty rather than optimism. Closed for the season with new things coming can mean a refreshed attraction list and a normal October. It can also mean a change of format, a change of ownership or a season that does not happen. We are not going to guess which, and neither should you from a car on Arnold Mill Road.

What we can say is what the farm has been: a small suburban operation in Cherokee County with a pumpkin patch, tractor and hayrides, a carousel, a playground, farm animals and homemade ice cream, aimed at young children and priced accordingly. It has also handled private bookings, listed at $150 for a 90-minute tent slot covering up to 10 children with mini pumpkins and a hayride, and photography sessions at $50 an hour.

If that is the outing you want and you live north of Atlanta, check the Facebook page. It is the only source that will know first.

Planning your visit

Best time to go

Unknown for 2026. When we checked in August 2026 the farm's website read that it was closed for the season with exciting new things coming, and pointed visitors to Facebook. It posted no dates, no hours and no prices. Third-party guides describe an October window, but they describe the 2025 season. Facebook is the only place a 2026 announcement is likely to appear first.

Parking

The parking fee is the admission here — reported at $4 by one guide and $5 per car by two others, cash only. Those figures describe 2025 and disagree with each other, so bring more cash than the lower number.

What to bring

  • Cash. The parking fee has been cash only, and an ATM in a farm field is not a thing
  • Nothing else — this is a short, simple stop, not a day out

How to spend less here

  • Charging per car rather than per head is unusual and it is the whole value proposition. Filling one vehicle rather than taking two roughly halves the cost of the visit
  • Pumpkins, food and rides are paid separately, so the parking fee is the floor rather than the total

Who it suits

Good for

  • Cherokee County and north Atlanta families who want a fall stop without an hour's drive into the mountains
  • Big groups arriving in one car, since the fee has historically been charged per vehicle rather than per person
  • Small children, who are the audience for a carousel, a playground and farm animals rather than a corn maze

Skip it if

You need certainty this year. A site that says closed for the season and promises new things for 2026 without naming any of them is not something you can plan a Saturday around from a distance.
