Jerry Smith Pumpkin Farm

Went there early in the season for the Corn Fest, This was fantastic. Greatly attended, but not too busy. Well laid out attentive staff, public restrooms, a petting zoo. A well planned out day.

Lovely pumpkin farm! I thought everything was opened but admission area opens at 4 so we had to leave. However, market area was pretty and fun enough stop by. We purchased few items and I absolutely loved it.. especially pickles in jars that says spicy but not spicy. Admission costs only $8 so it’s not crazy to buy.

The farm is the perfect size, not too big or too small. I loved that admission was pay per activity instead of one big fee for everything. We only had our one year old with us, so we didn't need access to everything and it was nice that we didn't have to pay for things we weren't going to do. We had a great time. Loved the pumpkin displays, and coffee and donuts were great! The mom and baby tent was also a nice addition. Will definitely be back. ☺️🎃🧡

Beautiful Christmas lights, and the private igloos are cozy and relaxing. I proposed here, and the staff were all lovely and showered my now fiancée in congratulations and warm feelings. The lovely woman working the gift shop even gave her a free cookie! 10/10, would propose here again.

Had an awesome time at Jerry Smith’s pumpkin farm! So many fun activities for the kids! My grandson loved feeding and petting the animals, riding the camel, jumping on the bounce pad, eating popcorn, going down the slides, climbing on the tires, running in the hay maze, and of course picking out gords and pumpkins. So many fun memories made! The Bloody Marys were yummy too with a half of a brat and cheese and pickles and sausage stick! Highly recommend a visit!

Your pumpkin firm was a treat for my grandkids. They loved every minute. There are many different attractions for them. From climbing nun tires going on hayrides, too creating huge bubbles. Most of the different attractions are for children, but not toddlers. There’s a petting zoo and you can even ride a camel.

What a great family fun filled experience! Excellent mix of farm and food and entertainment. Seemed a little pricy at first, but the reward is well worth it. Everyone was so nice and the sugar cookies are amazing.

Had a great time with friends. Hot chocolate was very chocolately. Enjoyed great snacks and brought some goodies back for gifts. The tractor ride was great.

We had such a great time at Jerry Smith. We took the kids to Jerrry Smith for the little ones to have a great time. This farm is great for young kids. They have plenty of photo stations, great for making memories. The farm has plenty of farm animals that you can feed. They also have 2 big pillows that the kids can jump around on, a playground, and hay rides. My favorite was all the pumpkin scenery's. Will definitely be back next year.

Easily the best pumpkin patch we've ever been to. So much to do and the animals were clearly happy and well taken care of. I felt like everything was super affordable too. We will definitely be making this our new go-to farm!

Go on the Christmas Walk! They're open every day, weather permitting. Take in the beautiful lights, tractor ride, campfires, s'mores, and adult beverages (hot cocoa) for the kids. Jerry Smith's is a staple of our community so be sure to come support them in their cozy shop also!!!

NOT SERVICE ANIMAL FRIENDLY! Unprofessional staff. We were harassed by several employee's about our service animal. Who was focusing on her task, making sure her handler was safe, however, staff did not "believe" our dog was an actual service dog. The workers tried to isolate us away from the animal based activities so our visit was cut very short after each encounter, her handler had an episode. She is alright now, but shame on the staff and owners of this place. Shortly after leaving the Google review, three or four FALSE positive reviews were posted by workers/friends/family of the people there. However, Tod, bless him. A security member there, called and apologized for his behavior and realized he may have went too far and overreacted. He went on to confirm that NO OTHER SERVICE ANIMALS HAVE BEEN ON THE PREMISES!! So those false 5 star reviews that were posted back to back of each other, were in fact posted by people within the facility or their peers. We did not receive any form of apology from other workers who were involved. They are NOT disability friendly, NOT service animal friendly whatsoever, despite their site claiming they are. Shame on the workers, besides Tod, shame on the owners for trying to sweep it under the rug. Trying to keep their reviews up there for a better flow of customers. Pathetic. I truly hope each of them have the day they deserve.

I love the produce and food items they have and the staff of Jerry Smith's pumpkin farm is amazing!

This place is an absolutely perfect place to celebrate fall with your family or just stop by to get fall treats. Incredibly creative designs, impressively well done. lots of great photo locations. The kids love it. The staff is friendly. It's obvious a lot of personal care and attention made this possible. Highly recommend.

the haunted house people were bossy and rude and kept us in a room and wouldn't let us leave. also they kept fowlowing us and would not let us do anything. They also wouldn't stop talking in regular voices.

Looks like they lowered their price of admission, yay. BOOO, they have an admission booth set up prior to the free area AND they have security that doesn't let people walk past the admission booth. This gives people the false impression that you HAVE to pay to go to the store or buy pumpkins. Jerry Smith turning into Jerry springer with all their bull crap.

My husband and I went here for the first time and we actually had a lot of fun! They had a lot of beautiful pumpkins; the gourds were cute. All the little section for decorations they had of different movies was awesome. They even had the animals to feed. Definitely a lot of places for kids to explore with the bouncy houses, playground, the tire obstacles and basketball games. The corn maze was simplistic but super fun and so was the hay ride. Definitely recommend this place for anyone with kiddos or just a simple date night like my husband & I did! Will definitely be coming back!

The staff of Jerry Smith's pumpkin farm is amazing! They now are so much more than a pumpkin farm our family visits often for produce, special events like babies on the farm, corn fest, and winter lights! The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming and the prices are very reasonable! If you are looking for a great family owned local small business this is where it's at!

My favorite spot for pumpkin time!! $10 gets you unlimited in the back half of the farm (the front half is still free). There are fresh made cookies every day for the 6 week period. Homemade donuts, kettle corn, caramel apples, Apple cider, the list goes on! Grab something warm to sip and take a hayride! The food court in back on the weekends has nachos, my all time favorite, I just really love nachos, can't wait to visit this year, highly recommended! They even paint all the pumpkins in the displays and a lot of work goes in to each and every display! Reach out with any questions, I can give you pointers!

Warning: bring shoes you don't mind getting dirty and if it's busy be patient with the free parking, it's a bit of a mess. But I have never been to an actual pumpkin patch before and gotta say we had a blast. We did not pay the extra $10 to do the extras and even then it was fun! Also bring cash! Without paying the extra you have access to the concession stand (of course not free lol), all the pumpkins for sale, the little pumpkin exhibits with themes they made (they make great photo ops) and can still pet some goats thru a fence. From what I saw if you paid $10 there is a trampoline of some sort, chickens and pigs You can see, hayride and I think a petting zoo. I think for $10 it was a great price but a bit cold for my young ones. They also have a camel ride but I cannot remember how much it costs.

They have a wide variety of things to do here. Although the haunted maze is short, it scared my friends and I and we're 17. The donuts and apple cider is delicious. It's a really fun place to take your friends and family.

Although a fantastic display put on, the place has become extremely expensive over the past few years. $15 a bucket to feed THEIR animals for them?? It's a great place to bring the family, then go buy pumpkins somewhere else.

I am reviewing Jerry Smith for the month of October and there pumpkin patch. They do an amazing job of creating scenes for the kids based off of popular kids characters. What does this have to do with pumpkins? Well each character has a pumpkin for a head!!! Cool!!! There are also animals you can feed. 50 cent gets you a handful of food, then you drop the food into a PVC pipe and it goes past a double fence to the mouths of the goats. Hey wait a minute here...it seems like with all of these precautions we've had an incident (allegedly)! Among the goats you will see chickens, ducks, lammas and a pig...all living in harmony!!! There are also hay rides, a corn maze, a new pumpkin pillow, an old town, a theater, a country store, a playground and snacks. Yes there is a lot to do. My only gripe is the price of the pumpkins. It is almost 20 bucks for a large pumpkin. They are really over priced. There is no middle man here...why so high? I used my gas to drive here to pick it up and you grew it in the field next door. I really do not understand. It feels like they might be taking advantage of me. I know they are not hurting because I always see big trucks backing into there dock and picking up pallets of pumpkins. I'm sure the retailer isn't paying those prices. It is a great tradition to visit every year. If you have never been here, then make sure you swing by at least once in your lifetime. The kids will enjoy it for sure.

I LOVE AUTUMN. I love the wind rustling through the drying leaves, I love the smell, I love the feel of sweaters and I love boots. All that said, I have NEVER been to a Pumpkin Farm. We always bought our pumpkins from the grocery store growing up, so when my boyfriend invited me to go with his family to a pumpkin farm I was a little judgemental (quietly of course) thinking - why would you drive all the way up to boo foo wisconsin to buy a pumpkin? What I was unaware of, however, is that the pumpkin farm is so much more than just a place to buy a pumpkin. It's kind of like a country fair meets with a carnival meets with small town adorable vendors. So, we get there and it's HUGE. There are pumpkins forever. Available for your entertainment is...a corn maze, a haunted something or another (I avoid all things haunted cause I'm a wussy), several displays incorporating pumpkins, a store, a petting zoo and a hay ride. I went with my boy's niece & sister on the hay ride. Um - amazing. The smell of fall and the warmth that only communing with the outdoors (safe from bugs, snakes or anything else that's awful or irksome) is unsurpassable. The pumpkins were ridiculously overpriced in my opinion. I paid $18 for two pumpkins...seriously? Shouldn't that be like $8-10? Maybe I'm cheap, but whatever. The had pasta sauce, jellies, apples, popcorn, and lots and lots of chocolate and some cookies in the store. All of which looked amazing and none of which I managed to get home (recently joined Weight Watchers and was feeling beyond tempted). Anyway - this is cute and fun and I hope to go again next year. Enjoy!

This used to be the place to go for pumpkins for our family!! Unfortunately, we will not be returning after this year. They're making you pay for admission and the pumpkin prices have gone up quite ridiculously. You have to buy a wristband to go see the animals, jump on the big balloon and the corn maze. Monday-Thursday is $5 per wristband and $10 per person on weekends!! Pumpkins are "basketball size"-$6, "double the size"-$12 and bigger than that is $30+. Next year we'll be going to Swan's pumpkin farm. Everything there is free, even the petting zoo.

While it's not super overpriced like Apple Holler--or near the overwhelming tourist to local family ratio--Smith Jerry's is still a little more on the costly end than other local pumpkin farms. Your best bet is to drive the cornfield side streets of Kenosha County and spot out one of the several tractors on the side of the road. There they will be filled with not only bright pumpkins but fresh daily produce from their small plantations. Often they have a little box where its honest citizens leave how much they owe. Super cute! On the other hand, Smith Jerry is especially great for the kids and family. They have a plenty of entertainment including: a little theatre with magic shows, petting zoo with alpacas, llamas, goats, heifers and more, mini haunted house, camel/pony rides, kiddy hay stack maze and even various themed scarecrows/costumes with painted pumpkin heads created by the owner's wife herself (each taking roughly 2 hours to paint). Of course, I caved in and had to buy more than just my Halloween pumpkins. This included their $1.25 frosted cookies, a sweet potato squash (no it does not taste anything like a sweet potato but still yummy like a spaghetti squash) and several red apples. Lastly, I quickly noticed another odd must-buy--a Cinderella Pumpkin. They look like an average round pumpkin yet one that had its top end smoosh down (not possessing a rotten look though) and a bright orange-red color makeover. STAND OUT this Halloween/Fall!

This place is a total rip off! Came here last year and it was a very affordable nice family experience! They have takin it to a new level where they charge to have a wristband for everyone in the group. Fenced in area! One of us went in to take the kid through as the rest of us sat outside! Very expensive! Everything else is à la cart! I usually spend so much money already on food, animal rides, apples, pumpkins, etc. i refuse to spend $10. a person when I am not afforded the opportunity to go in the bounce house, slide etc. In fact, the family sitting next to us was staring my same sentiments! I will not spend a penny here for apples or pumpkins! Another couple just walked out too!

Not sure about the other posts and paying for admission to enter, but I do wonder why I paid $50 CASH for three pumpkins and the person at the admission shack couldn't muster up the words "thank you". What ever happened to good old fashioned manners? I give you my hard earned money for three over priced pumpkins, one was rotten when we carved it, and you can't say thank you? I blame this squarely on poor management and an under appreciation of your customers. We have options as customers. You are no longer on my list of options for pumpkin farms.

So excited that Jerry Smiths opened for the season! This is great family fun. And the cookies are to die for. Not a fan of the haunted stuff but my kids are! We have been going here for years and will continue on for a long time.

Fun place to bring the kids. The unlimited activities keep them busy. So many photo opportunities with the different displays. The cookies are also a great treat.

Excellent Halloween adventure! We did the sloth encounter and got to hold a baby sloth!! Well worth the admission price. Very accommodating staff and the baby animals were adorable. So much to see and do. And homemade bakery etc in the gift shop. Something for everyone! We will definitely be back! I hope the sloth is there more often... we would definately visit the babies again

By far one of the best pumpkin patches in the area. The kids loved the pumpkin displays (Wizard of Oz, Frozen, Trolls, Sesame Street, and many more, and they were all done well and super cute! Everything was nice and spread out too so you don't feel like you're on top of everyone that was there. (It wasn't too busy either!) Even though it costs $10pp to get in, it includes most everything! Great job!

We've been going to Jerry Smiths for years and we absolutely love it! The cookies are the best! The pumpkin displays are awesome too. There's a lot of fun activities. Stop by and check it out!

We visited the farm for the first time today. We had a good time and had a great parking spot. When we were leaving my husband was blocked in and trying to back out. I heard this yelling - move it move your car and I thought someone was yelling at the guy who parked in my husband's blind spot. Unfortunately then I heard move your car asshole and it was the farm's employee who was a parking guy yelling at my husband. My kids started crying and my husband and I got out of the car. Words were exchanged. They guy said that he was calling the police to which I replied go ahead - I would welcome that. He then used his little walkie talkie to pretend to call in our plates like we would be pulled over. Another employee apologies for this guys behavior and despite the fact that that other employee was a nice guy he did nothing to prevent the other guys verbal threats and disgraceful behavior in front of my kids. The guy told us to go back to Illinois. The guy's limited intelligence I guess made him feel like that is a horrible insult. He should go back to his sister who birthed him with his father. In all seriousness this guy scared my kids and wanted, was itching for a fight. He is a wanna be cop who could never pass the psychological. Jerry Smith Farms he is a liability to you. He will get you court involved. He scared my children and we will never ever be back. With social media etc , you should never employ someone who is so limited in their intelligence, assaultive toward women and children and generally just a degenerate. Enjoy the picture of my last moments at the farm.

I've been to this pumpkin farm every year for the past 6 years! This year they changed things and you can't even enter without paying 10$ for ages 2 and up, and that doesn't include everything! So if you want to come and watch your child enjoy everything you still have to pay. I was pretty excited to bring my kids this year and ended up disappointed.

Sadly, this place has become a ripoff on the scale of Apple Hollow. It used to be a nice place in the county to take your kids in the fall, now a family can barely afford it. I wish I knew why they became so gready. If you go - take PLENTY of money - you will need it. Parents even get charged just to watch their kids. Shame shame shame.

I would give it a zero if possible, I took my family through the corn maze which was had mud and 3" or more of water!!! I understand it's a farm but this was dangerous, I went to inform management and was treated like garbage!!! With a RBF she said "it's a farm you should have known better"... I will not return to give money for that type of customer service

Although they do not offer a pumpkin patch to pick your own pumpkins off the vine (it's our thing, don't judge). Smith's Pumpkin Farm makes up for it in character, creativity and campy fun. It truly is a pumpkin farm first--there are so many different types and sizes of pumpkins available for purchase. Aside from the typical orange pumpkin and min pumpkins, they had white pumpkins, peanut pumpkins (looked like a bunch of peanuts are growing on them), apple pumpkins (they are green and many are shaped like large apples)...and those are only the ones that I remember! So much variety! Then there are the attractions--aside from the mini farm where you can purchase feed for the barnyard animals like pigs and goats (the machine automatically doles it out, you can't feed them by hand), there is a corn maze and hayrides. Then there are the decorated pumpkin scenes. Many different scenes with characters heads made out of painted pumpkins. There was a Scooby Doo theme, a Sesame Street Theme, a Harry Potter theme--and so many more. The country store sells jams, pickled veggies, sauces and syrups along with popcorn and caramel apples and candy. I felt some of the items, including the pumpkins, a bit overpriced. It's a cute place, wide open spaces, bumpy paths for strollers. Not at all crowded on a weekday afternoon--but I'm sure not the same for the weekend.

I have grown up going to this pumpkin farm as I do with my kids every year. This year however this is very little u can do without paying. You can't even feed the animals without paying ten dollars a person. Even the adults had to pay. So u pay 100 bucks to walk around and let the kids use the bounce thing. My daughters were so upset they couldn't go in. Not everyone can afford all that. Used to be a family based company.. now just all about the money like everyone else . What a shame!

First time here. Too cold last night to enjoy much. But we got to see the pumpkin displays and have a long hayride. The boys did get to see the goats and ducks (although I wouldn't call that a petting zoo, because you only get to touch them through the fence), play a couple minutes on the sandhill with the toy tractors, and jump on the huge bounce cushion (that I thought was neat, even adults could do it). Staff was friendly. Signage could've been slightly better - I was a bit confused where to go. I think $5/person, 2 and under free is fair for evenings hours (4-8 pm). Just wish we'd come earlier in the season so could get more of my money's worth.

It costs a lot for farmers to raise crops, each year the prices rise for them. It's not the 60s or 70s anymore. Yes, pumpkins are not as inexpensive as they used to be. Jerry Smith's is a true iconic Kenosha County tradition, I'd miss them if they closed for good. Let's hope that doesn't happen for many years to come. I'll be going tomorrow, 10/27/15, taking my 5-year-old grandson. The tradition continues! A thought - if you have room on the land where you live, grow your own pumpkins! It's really easy and loads of fun, just make sure you contain the vines so they don't go traveling all over the yard, as they will tend to do! If you don't have the space, join a Community Garden group, there are many in SE-WI and NE-IL. Enjoy the Autumn, it IS a beautiful season!

Great place for your family to go! Love the cookies and the staff is always helpful and kind. Excited for pumpkin season!

Definitely a five star rating for this place! This family friendly farm goes above and beyond! I love the fresh fruits and vegetables that the farm has to offer - where else can you pick your own tomatoes, peppers, zucchini, pickles, etc. What would we do without you! So happy that you can continue to provide pick your own - there aren't many businesses that allow this. Now let's talk about the Pumpkin Farm - $10 a person and my family can go on the hay ride, jumping pillow, playground, etc.? Or I like the option of hanging out to view the character displays at no charge. Thank you Smith Family for all that you do for the last 45 years.

I love bringing my granddaughter here. She smiles from ear to ear. Her favorite is to pick out gourds. She is 3 and she picks one for her and one for her baby brother. Best place to take little ones.

Rip off central. $10 wristband which covers about half the attractions. And if you want to watch your kids (AKA not abandon them and get reported to authorities) you need to pay $10 too. Grandparents joining you? $10 for them too! Go to Richardsons instead. Better setup, cleaner, nicer, etc.

They are so friendly. As my first time here I enjoyed all the attractions. The Brat was so good! I definitely recommend bring your family here :)

We have been coming here for years. This year was even better. Also the other reviewers complain about cost. You don't have to pay to view all the fun pumpkin decorations. And really for the other areas you pay for it's really fun. This is how a family makes money. This is a great place for any age!!!!

This was the highlight of my Fall as a kid!! Love the cookies and all the fun!! Little did I know I'd grow up to be friends with someone in the family!!! Miss being able to go now that I'm in Cali, but it's a great place for everyone!!!

I have gone here every year since I was a kid!! Love it so much!! Food is good, cookies are great!!!

Overpriced all the way around; produce, pumpkin farm and family entertainment. I have had a couple problems with their crop box sign up, and have gotten the "we have enough business, we don't need you" shrug. For me, as a top ex-customer service rep, it is a huge red flag. Once I will tolerate, the second time it is time to move on. The inexpensive crop box is really just a way to get you on property to spend more money. Although some strenuously disagree with me, and have even gotten hostile on other review mediums, it's 2.5 stars for me.

CSA produce baskets are great. I wish they charged a little more and gave you a better container to transport the produce home in.

I'm not even sure how I originally found Jerry Smiths. But I don't even care. I've fallen in love ever since my first visit last year. They have so much to offer. And for low prices. A day of fun for my two children never costs me more than $20. And that gets me ALL the attractions, and even some snacks. This will be our new family tradition. Jerry smiths every year. :)

To Whom It May Concern: My family and I fell in love with your pumpkin farm when we visited for the first time 4 years ago with our then 2 year old son. We adored the "low tech" entertainment for adults and children, such as the playground, jumping pillow and hayrides. As we continued to return to your farm for the autumn festivities, we have noticed you grow and expand. While this must be a sign that your farm is becoming more profitable for you and your employees, in the meantime, it is losing the charm that called us back year after year. We recently visited in Sunday, October 9th on a gorgeous fall day around 2 pm. We enjoyed your painted pumpkin displays and my now 6 year old son couldn't wait to see your attractions. We quickly learned the prices increased and there was the option of the wristband. We thought the wristband was the best choice. We paid an extra $3 for my husband to ride the hayride with him. I also had to pay an extra $3 so he could enter the "petting zoo" as he needed an adult. Let me interject here by saying calling that a petting zoo is not acceptable. There were no animals to pet. You should call it animals in a cage to look at. In fact, many cages had signs "do not touch". That is NOT a petting zoo. Back to the farm... the addition of the tractor tire playground was a blast and your brats and cookies are always delicious, we felt the overall atmosphere was not like it used to be. It was sad to watch an elderly grandfather with 5 or so grandchildren tell them he couldn't pay for all of them to ride the hayride. I also misread the rules of the wristband, and after waiting patiently for a pony ride, my just turned 6 year old son was not allowed to ride because it "was not included in the wristband". I am happy that your family is making a profit from the farm and the attractions, but we will not be back. We miss the family atmosphere your farm used to exude.

The disappointment with this farm over the years is becoming disheartening. The price do not match the product nor the activities that they provide... their advertisement is with great expectation but turns into disappointment. Not sure where the animals come from but communication with guests whether for business or education is lacking. Not sure if this family will continue to come to this farm that from the beginning was charming but has turned corput

This was my favorite childhood place to go. I took my boyfriends family there the other day to enjoy the fun activities and "petting zoo" but soon realized that we would have to go to a different pumpkin farm because they now charge a $10 entrance fee per person to get passed the store and pumpkin displays. First of all, they are charging grown adults to take their children into the area with the jumping pillow and "petting zoo." Second, the kids were bummed out because I was not going to pay $70 for all of us to enter the pumpkin farm that used to be free and then have to buy incredibly overpriced pumpkins and whatever else they wanted to eat or do. What I thought would be a nice, cheap, play day at a local pumpkin farm soon turned into crying children and a return home. I understand that a growing company needs to expand and in order to expand, there needs to be more money but the nice, local feel of this pumpkin farm now seems like it is becoming something that it shouldn't be. Unfortunately, Jerry Smiths has lost sight of what they used to be. I'm very sad about this because this was my childhood and now I can't bring my family here to share the memories.

Love this place! It's a great place to take the family. You can walk around and check out the displays, take pictures, or let the kids play on the playground for free. The corn maze is huge and actually quite fun. The hay ride is great for the younger kids. The haunted bus is much scarier now (and longer) than it was in the past. There's a petting zoo, chickens wandering around, and just an all around good time for the entire family. They also offer fresh vegetables, caramel apples, apples, local honey, farm fresh eggs, popcorn, and cookies. The sugar cookies are a must have!!!

We love Jerry Smith Pumpkin Farm! I recommend going on a weeknight to get the most out of your money. First of all, parking is free. Then, for $5 bucks, you get to do SO MUCH! The petting zoo, the giant bounce pillow, hayrides, the big corn maze, the small kids straw maze (which my kids loved!), a HUGE play area with tire mountain and climbing wall of tires, big tubes to play in, a really cool, long tube swing, tractor play area, 2 huge Rainbow Play sets, sand piles to play in, and there's even more, I can't even list it all! The pumpkin displays are all super cute and fun. The shops are adorable and have a wide selection of gifts, treats, and produce, and it's all affordable! Jerry Smith is our Pumpkin Farm of choice. We appreciate it even more after we regretfully tried going to Apple Holler this year...do not fall into their money trap, avoid Apple Holler. Jerry Smith is the place to go! You get a lot for your money and a great experience!
