Greater Houston pumpkin patches

What to expect in Greater Houston

6 of the 24 Texas patches we track are in Greater Houston, spread across Brazoria County, Fort Bend County, Harris County, Montgomery County, Waller County. 4 of them run a corn or crop maze, and 5 have farm animals your kids can get close to. 2 have their 2026 dates confirmed on the farm's own site.

Admission runs from $10 a head at Old Time Christmas Tree Farm Pumpkin Patch up to $15.95 at P-6 Farms — a real spread, and one worth checking against how long you actually plan to stay. A paid festival only pays for itself if you use it for half a day.

Texas splits two ways, and it is worth knowing which half you are visiting. Most metro-area patches truck their pumpkins in and arrange them; what you are paying for is the festival, the backdrop and the activities, not a field someone harvested. West Texas is the exception — Floydada has called itself the Pumpkin Capital of the USA for good reason. Either way, heat is the planning problem rather than cold: go at opening or in the evening, which is why so many Texas farms run their mazes after dark.
