Autumn at the Arboretum
Why carve a pumpkin when you can ride in Cinderella’s carriage? From September 17 through Halloween, the Dallas Arboretum will transform into your favorite storybooks, complete with a pumpkin patch, hay maze, 150,000 flowers, and more. Grab a pumpkin spice latte and a chunky sweater and pretend temperatures aren’t still in the upper 80s.
DFM Pumpkin Patch
A pumpkin on your front porch is gourd-geous (we couldn’t help ourselves). So, as you’re shopping produce this fall at the Dallas Farmers Market, stop by The Shed for your perfect pumpkin. Beginning September 17, DFM is selling more than 25 varieties at its seasonal pumpkin patch every day until Halloween. 920 S. Harwood.
