## About

Simmons Farm in Peters Township / McMurray has delighted Pittsburgh families for decades with its classic autumn harvest offerings. Spanning hundreds of acres of lush farmland, the farm offers tractor-pulled hayrides directly through the fields to sprawling pick-your-own pumpkin patches, where guests can choose their ideal Thanksgiving display pumpkin right off the vine. In addition to pumpkin picking, families enjoy picking late-season apples and sunflowers, navigating both a 5-acre corn maze and a toddler-friendly 1-acre maze, sliding down tube slides, and visiting friendly petting zoo animals.

Family Experience & Accessibility:
• Stroller Accessibility: Packed gravel and grassy pathways around the farm market and animal sheds accommodate heavy-duty strollers. Tractor hayride wagons have deep boarding steps where staff help load strollers.
• Nursing & Rest Spots: Restroom facilities with baby changing tables are situated next to the greenhouse market, with quiet picnic groves under maple trees.
• Age Suitability: All ages. The two distinct corn maze options allow families to pick the perfect challenge level for toddlers or energetic tweens.
• Sensory Tips: Relaxed, unhurried rural atmosphere. The hayride offers gentle mechanical sounds and open-air country scenery, making it very calming for sensory-sensitive children.
