2026 confirmed3 patches across 2 counties, 1 free to enter. The season opens September 26 at Hunt Club Farm.
3 of the 18 Virginia patches we track are in Hampton Roads, spread across City of Chesapeake, City of Virginia Beach. 2 of them run a corn or crop maze, and 2 have farm animals your kids can get close to. 1 have their 2026 dates confirmed on the farm's own site.
One patch here is free to walk into, which makes it the low-risk option with unpredictable toddlers — you are not out $80 if the visit lasts twenty minutes.
Elevation runs this season. Mountain farms open cooler and earlier, often as orchards first with a patch attached, while Piedmont and coastal farms run warmer and later — an early-October afternoon near the coast can still be genuinely hot. In the mountains, peak leaf season and peak patch season land on the same weekends, so the approach roads matter as much as the farm does. Note too that late-September and early-October storms reach both states, and farm lots hold water afterwards.
