## About

Set against the scenic rolling hills of Liberty north of the Missouri River, Carolyn's Pumpkin Patch & Country Cousin Fall Festival delivers a classic Midwestern autumn harvest experience beloved by Kansas City families for over three decades. Spanning 60 picturesque acres of working farmland, the festival offers endless wholesome family entertainment during late autumn weekends. Children thrill to ride the historic Little Farmer Railroad—a full-scale miniature train chugging along a half-mile scenic track through pastures and wooded groves—and ride the handcrafted country carousel. Families can cheer on speedy porkers at the famous live pig races, navigate the giant corn maze, slide down the 50-foot tube slide, pet friendly farm animals, and pick out late-season decorative gourds. On-site bakeries serve warm homemade pumpkin donuts, hand-dipped caramel apples, and spiced cider that make autumn memories delicious.

Family Experience & Accessibility:
• Stroller Accessibility: Main activity hubs, barns, and train depot areas have packed dirt and grassy paths manageable with standard strollers; all-terrain wagons are ideal for farm exploration.
• Nursing & Rest Spots: Dedicated family restrooms with clean changing counters are located near the central admission barn and Red Barn market.
• Age Suitability: Built for all ages; infants and toddlers enjoy wagon rides and gentle petting corrals, while school-age kids and tweens adore the slides and obstacle courses.
• Sensory Tips: Pig races and train whistles feature loud cheers and horn blasts; quieter spots with picnic tables can be found along the orchard perimeter.
