A 100-acre working farm celebrating its 50th year in 2026 with free corn maze included in your visit, daily hours, and a focus on pick-your-own pumpkins and fresh produce rather than a ticketed festival.
Munson Farms is marking its 50th year operating on the Boulder-area Front Range, and it runs as a working produce farm rather than a festival. That distinction matters: you will find pumpkin picking and a free corn maze, but not carnival rides, food trucks, or ticket booths. The farm is open daily 9am-6pm for fresh produce, and October is peak pumpkin season here.
The website does not specify pricing, which is unusual for even a casual operation. Call ahead to understand whether entry is free and how the pumpkin selection works — is it pick-your-own by the pound, by the pumpkin, or by a crate? That detail shapes the budget and the time commitment.
This is worth noting against operations where you pay admission and then the maze is an add-on. At Munson, the maze is included in your visit, which lowers the baseline cost significantly if your group wants a non-negotiable maze experience.
At 5,430 feet in Boulder County, the Front Range does get genuine fall weather and color by late September. Nights turn cold fast — bring layers even on a warm afternoon. By late October, you might encounter early frost or even snow at this elevation, which is a real planning consideration if you are scheduling a late-season trip.
Call the farm before driving. “Peak pumpkin season” is not the same as “we are open,” and the website does not list the 2026 season start or end. The farm should have that information ready and be able to confirm hours on weekdays versus weekends if it varies.
The farm does not publish specific fall season dates on its website. Peak pumpkin season is typically September through October on Colorado Front Range farms. Hours are daily 9am-6pm, but the website notes that specific fall hours have not been published yet for 2026. Call 720-491-1421 or 303-883-7743 to confirm the exact dates when the fall pumpkin operation begins.
Two to three hours. Pick-your-own takes time, and the free corn maze adds another 45 minutes to an hour if your group tackles it.
As a working produce farm open daily, likely steadier than festival-focused operations, but still busier on weekends.
Not documented. Over 100 acres on Valmont Road, so adequate on-site lot parking is likely, but expect a gravel or unpaved surface typical of farm operations.
