Jason's Pumpkin Patch

📍 12629 W. Salem Carroll Rd, Oak Harbor, OH 43449🗓 September 12 – November 1, 2026🏷 From $2/person

Genuinely cheap, open daily for seven weeks, and one of the few farms that publishes every price it charges — but two of the paid attractions are weekend-only, which quietly halves the value of a weekday Everything Pass.

What you get for the price

Included with admission

Corn mazeHayridesPedal go-kartsPony cart ridesStraw bale mazeCorn pitSlide towerPlaygroundOver 100 varieties of pumpkins, gourds and squashApple dumplings

A la carte: corn maze $6; hay rides $2 (weekends only); pedal go-carts $4; pony cart ride $4 (weekends only); playground equipment free. Packages: Kids Zone $7.00; KidZone Plus $10.00 (adds a pony ride OR unlimited go-carts); Everything Pass $12.00; adult combo $7.00 (corn maze and hay ride).

Rough cost for a family of four: about $8.00 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.

Our take

Jason’s publishes something most farms do not: every single price, plainly, including the ones that make the packages look less clever. That transparency is worth flagging up front, because it is what lets you plan this visit properly instead of discovering the structure at a till.

The base numbers are low. Corn maze $6, hayride $2, pedal go-karts $4, pony cart ride $4, playground free. The packages layer on top: Kids Zone at $7, KidZone Plus at $10 which adds a pony ride or unlimited go-karts, and an Everything Pass at $12. Adults have their own $7 combo covering the maze and the hayride.

A family of four — two adults on the combo, two children on the Everything Pass — comes to $38 on a Saturday. In a region where a single wristband can run to $27 a head, that is a genuinely cheap day.

The weekday trap

Here is the thing the price list does not shout about. Hayrides are weekend-only. Pony cart rides are weekend-only. Both appear in the packages.

So a $12 Everything Pass bought on a Tuesday covers the corn maze, the go-karts, the straw bale maze, the corn pit and the slide tower — and two attractions that are not running. The pass is still not expensive, but you are paying full price for a partial farm, and the adult combo of maze-plus-hayride at $7 makes even less sense on a day when the hayride does not exist.

The clean rule: weekday visits should be bought a la carte, weekend visits should be bought as packages. That one decision is worth more than any other planning you do here.

Where the pass maths actually lands

The $10 to $12 step is the interesting one. KidZone Plus at $10 gives you a pony ride or unlimited go-karts. The Everything Pass at $12 gives you both. Two dollars is not much, but it is worth asking the child which they want before you decide — plenty will do the go-karts four times and ignore the pony entirely, in which case the cheaper tier with unlimited karts is the better buy.

At the other end, the free playground matters more than it looks on a list. It means a family with a toddler can come, spend nothing beyond a pumpkin, and leave when the toddler decides the visit is over. That is a meaningfully different risk profile from a gate charge.

The pumpkins

Over 100 varieties of pumpkins, gourds and squash is a real claim and a real draw for anyone who has grown bored of the standard orange sphere. Northwest Ohio grows this stuff properly, so what is on the tables came out of local ground rather than off a truck from elsewhere. If you decorate seriously, this is the sort of listing that rewards a slow walk around the display before anyone buys anything.

Planning your visit

Best time to go

The season runs September 12 to November 1, 2026, daily 10am to 7pm. The decision is weekday versus weekend, and here it is not a straight crowd trade-off. Hayrides and pony cart rides both run at weekends only. Come on a Tuesday and the corn maze, go-karts, straw bale maze, corn pit, slide tower and playground are all available and two of the six paid activities are not. Come on a Saturday and everything runs, along with everyone else in Ottawa County. If your children are set on a pony ride or a hayride, the weekend is not optional.

How long to budget

Two to three hours. With a corn maze, playground, slide tower, corn pit and straw bale maze on top of the rides, this fills an afternoon without needing to be a full day.

Crowds

Daily opening across seven weeks helps, but the weekend-only hayrides and pony rides pull families toward Saturday and Sunday and concentrate the crowd there. Mid-October weekends are the peak.

Parking

Not published. Assume a farm field in Ottawa County, and assume it is soft after autumn rain.

What to bring

  • A card and a plan — with six separate prices on the board, deciding at the till with children present is how the budget goes
  • Closed shoes for the corn pit, the mazes and the slide tower
  • Layers for a late-afternoon visit; a 7pm close in late October in northwest Ohio is after dark and considerably colder than the same hour in September
  • Room in the car if the 100-plus varieties do their job

How to spend less here

  • Work out the package maths before you buy. The Kids Zone is $7, KidZone Plus is $10 and adds either a pony ride or unlimited go-karts, and the Everything Pass is $12. If your child only wants the go-karts, the $10 tier beats the $12 one
  • Adults have a $7 combo covering the corn maze and the hay ride, which is cheaper than paying for both separately at $6 and $2 only if you would have done both anyway — check which applies to you
  • The playground is free, so a visit with a very young child can cost nothing beyond a pumpkin
  • Hayrides at $2 are the cheapest single item on the board and weekend-only; that is the one to add if you are otherwise buying a la carte

Who it suits

Good for

  • Budget-conscious families — two adults on the $7 combo and two children on the $12 Everything Pass is $38 for a weekend day
  • Toddlers and pre-schoolers, since the playground equipment is free and there is no gate charge to risk
  • Pumpkin buyers with specific taste, given a listed range of over 100 varieties of pumpkins, gourds and squash
  • Anyone who wants to pay for exactly one thing rather than a bundle — the a la carte prices go as low as $2

Skip it if

You can only visit midweek and the hayride or pony ride is the whole point of the trip. Both are weekend-only, and buying an Everything Pass on a Wednesday means paying for access to two attractions that are not running.
