Gift shop has lots of books on Virginia history, some by local authors. Quite a few value-priced used books also! Restrooms were clean and there were a few places to sit. It's about 3 large steps to enter the museum, then 6-7 steps down to the exhibit, or there is an elevator. The suggested donation is $10, but it is pay what you can. Support local!

During my stay in Virginia I visited this fun and educational museum. One of the first things you…read moresee upon entering is plaques narrating the burning of the bread basked, a brutal time during the civil war. Afterward you enter a room with a felt art wall where you can exercise your creativity. Great for kids and even better for me. I made a surfing girl. It was the highlight of my visit. Other notable features of this museum include garments worn and weapons used during the time period. Other knickknacks were also on display like old school flasks. The museum was not very large but you could still spend a chunk of time there of you enjoy reading about history. The museum ends where it began, in the gift shop. The lady at the front desk said it gets busier on rainy days. I think there was only two other people there during my visit.

I had heard good things about their pumpkin patch last year and wanted to check it out this fall…read more The pumpkin patches I've visited in the past didn't have an entrance fee and $10 felt like a bit much to pay per person (especially for a 2 year old!) But now that we've been I think that the amount and variety of activities justifies the price. It's also nice that everything inside is included in the admission fee. My three kids had a blast exploring all of the grounds with various cute playground structures, swings, and slides. Several gardens, a tug of war station, a zip line, a small petting/feeding area, bunnies to watch, giant jenga and connect four - all generously spaced out with plenty of shaded areas and seating for parents and grandparents to relax. The corn maze is large but not TOO large. We took a photo of the maze map and were able to make our way out in 15 minutes (we took our stroller in without a problem). The tractor ride up to the pumpkin patch was a lot of fun for the kids and the views are very pretty. They did a great job of sanitizing in between rides as well. You can pick your pumpkins from the fields or from the store - both options are $0.50/lb). One thing I wouldn't recommend is their food. While very reasonably priced ($3.50 for hamburgers, $2 for hot dogs, and $2 for fries) the line was excessively long, the food took forever to arrive, and also wasn't very good. (Have you ever had over-fried funnel cake? So sad.) Next time we'll pack our own lunch. *just a note: this year due to COVID19 there are no pig races and no train rides

10.23.2025. Harrisonburg, VA. My husband and I enjoyed strolling through the Edith J. Arboretum, a…read morefour-season public garden located on James Madison University's East Campus. The 125 acre urban arboretum "provides all students and community members with an outdoor classroom, a forested haven that is home to a rich oak-hickory habitat of flora and fauna, flowering gardens, and native wildflowers." The arboretum is open from dawn to dusk 365 days a year, and has free admission. (That said, I encourage you to support the EJC by becoming a member). We enjoyed walking on the 0.9 easy loop trail, passing through or near the family garden, the oak-hickory forest, fern valley, the pond, and more. Being late October, there weren't any flowering plants, but it didn't matter. There are restrooms, family restrooms, a water fountain, picnic area, a few benches, and an information kiosk. There are also three free parking areas on University Blvd, all with handicap parking spaces. We parked in the largest R5 lot. The garden and paths are well-maintained and enjoyed by a variety of users -- students, people walking their leased dogs, and older folks getting in some gentle exercise. I had only two disappointments -- (1) I so enjoyed the arboretum that I wish it were bigger! (2) can hear some traffic noise, but I guess you'd have to expect that in an urban garden. We look forward to returning when next in Harrisonburg!

While the streambed running through it was dry, it had the insect population of a wetland and I struggled to stop and be still at any point during my exploration.

Most of the other attendees, however, appeared older than college students. There were certainly some interesting sights to be seen, and no charge to get in.
