Fill the Wheelbarrow pumpkin sale; u-pick pricing not specified online
SR Pumpkin & Flower Farm is a family-owned u-pick operation north of Lincoln, specializing in pumpkins and decorative squash. The farm features 200+ pumpkin and squash varieties, a unique “Fill the Wheelbarrow” seasonal offer, and year-round flower operations (spring tulips, summer/fall cut flowers).
Two hundred varieties is substantial diversity. Most commercial pumpkin patches offer 5–10 varieties; SR Pumpkins’ 200+ means genuine selection for gardeners, decorators, and anyone interested in pumpkin and squash genetics. This appeals to visitors who want to explore varieties beyond the standard orange-sphere pumpkins.
This unique offer is a distinctive draw: bring or buy a wheelbarrow and fill it with small pumpkins for a flat fee. It is a playful, economical way to accumulate small-to-medium pumpkins for decorating or display. Pricing and availability for 2026 had not been published online; call (402) 321-9976 to ask if the offer is running in 2026 and what the current fee is.
This is not a commercial pumpkin patch with mazes, hayrides, and play areas. It is a u-pick farm experience. Expect walking fields, selecting pumpkins, harvesting them, and browsing the farm’s flower offerings. This appeals to gardeners and families seeking an authentic farm experience rather than commercial entertainment.
The farm operates beyond fall: spring tulips (May), summer cut flowers, and fall pumpkins/flowers create a year-round calendar. This suggests a well-established operation with diverse offerings, not a one-season pumpkin vendor.
A key detail: hours vary based on crop readiness and farm operations. There is no fixed “9am–5pm” schedule. You need to call (402) 321-9976 to ask current hours for your intended visit date. This is typical of small family farms; it is not a limitation but a feature of a real agricultural operation.
The farm is north of Lincoln city limits, roughly 15–20 minutes from downtown Lincoln. It is convenient for Lincoln residents and a reasonable day trip from Omaha (60+ minutes).
No admission or u-pick pricing had been published online as of August. Call (402) 321-9976 to ask about 2026 rates before the drive. Budget an hour of phone contact and information gathering; the farm’s minimal online presence requires traditional communication.
Fall pumpkin season timing not specified online. Call (402) 321-9976 to confirm 2026 opening and closing dates, and weekly hours. The farm operates spring tulips (May) and fall flowers/pumpkins (Sept–Oct) as seasonal offerings; hours vary week-to-week based on crop readiness.
One to two hours. A u-pick pumpkin operation with pumpkin and decorative squash varieties, no mazes or large attractions. This is a more intimate, hands-on experience than large commercial patches.
A small, specialty farm with no published hours or commercial marketing likely sees light crowds compared to regional flagships. October is still peak season, but expect manageable traffic.
Not specified. Assume small farm parking; adequate for a family u-pick operation.
